Salvage sunken boat

Пікірлер: 171

I watched a guy bring up a boat that size or bigger, with an air compressor and contractor trash bags. When he got the gunnels above the water, by stuffing the bags under the floors he simply pumped out the water. I thought it was amazing.

Good catch. I did not notice that I didn't have footage of the van leaving location until editing started, by then it was to late and with out closure the video was just lacking so I like you said I reused the footage that I did have. Most people don't notice or they don't watch it to the end so, thank you for watching and so closely at that.

@MCLStMaryDet 5 жыл бұрын

It had several holes in the bottom previous owner drilled and it was taking on water slowly until it could be repaired in dry dock but someone unplugged the sump pump. The owner was gone for a few days. Total cost was around $15,000. It stayed afloat ever since and it was repaired properly shortly after.I don't know rebuild cost. Thanks for watching.

This is the story of literally thousands of boats. Bottom line, if your boat is leaking you better haul it and repair it. It cost the owner a LOT more to have to crane that thing up and then pump the water out. And now the engines are trash...

The previous owner for some reason drilled many small holes in the bottom the new owner pluged The holes for transportation then brought it to the dock for storage and some of the plugs started to leak and the electricity was cut off no one knows who did it.

I looked at some boats 250K plus and they had no room in em. Yet some of the big less expensive boats with big open spaces have like crappy little V6 gas motors in em with no guts. That'll certainly get ya wrecked in bad weather.
