Long story short my BIL told me about a boat in his neighborhood. It is behind a abandoned home. Today we were working near it and stopped by the house to look.
I went to the front door and knocked, the door swung open, unlocked and the house was empty.
This boat was left behind.
So my question is, can I salvage it? It will need some serious TLC, by my estimate about $2-$3K worth if I do all the work myself and do it right.
How would I go about doing this legally? Can I just pull it out of there and re-register it? Register it as a home built?
I did some searching and the house has not been foreclosed on. The owner of the home lives in another home about 2 miles from this one. Which makes this more confusing.
I am going to go put a card in the guys door of the other home and see if he calls me. I will offer him a few hundred to pull it out of there.
Anyone ever do anything like this?
This would make a great first boat for us then I could sell it cheap when I am ready for a bigger one.
