At least that 20k could be used to do something useful not just become part of a scrap pile.
Thats exactly what they used to do in Miami Benny, auction off all the assets of those convicted of Narcotics trafficing , i used to go over every 6 months , the Hatteras 33 i bought even had 4 bullet holes in it, thank god for fibreglass, it was in a right state visually totally stripped bare with all the internals strewn everywhere inside , engines had the rocker covers removed and the sumps aswell , took 3 months and a couple of thousand pounds to put it straight once it had been shipped to UK , had the boat for 5 years one of the best deals i ever had, as my uncle used to say there's money in muck , most people would just run a mile from something that looked like that boat did
