Info and Ideas on how to remove that decaying Sailboat at sherman...
At some point it's gonna rust off metal into the beach, and there is a smell of chemical eminating from it.
Is it the countys responsabilty to remove derilict craft from shore? |

Have they turned it into a meth lab already? |

owner's responsibility first, then the County. I was there the day after it happened last year. County's people were there taking pictures and said that the owner was going to try to retrieve the boat, I guess it would cost more money than the boat is worth. |

The owner has tried to move it, but then again if he had a clue it wouldn't be there in the first place. Rumor has it the county had a tug try to move it, obviously without success. I'd like to see it moved to the City of Alameda to thank them for the lovely "cruise ship" at Decker Island. |

So, how did the boat run aground?

In the meantime, don't y'all think it would be a good idea to decorate it? |

Local teenagers already have. They discovered the mast make for great rope swings.
