This old prawn trawler (shrimp boat) has been sitting there in the same place for as long as I can remember. I spend a lot of time at the marina but I don't think I have ever seen anyone inside the fence. Downloading is recommended.

Very nice image, Earl. Why the fence? Not much to protect there to my eye.

It's like a swimming pool and kids , just leave your gate open and a three year wanders in and drowns , the same applies to
Teens and the boat , would you like to pay the hospital and D.R. bills that keep going up , and insurance won't couver you
If it is proven that the get was not locked, you could get jail time also , I would say there is a lot to protect ,and not only you
But your unattended victims

Must have been a nice boat in its day. What a shame.

Nice shot, Earl. It doesn't look seaworthy anymore.

It does look like a derelict, Earl. I've noticed it in your videos and wondered about it. Excellent shot.

I like your photo of a once hard working ship. Because I live 1,000 miles or more to get to any ocean and we like fresh seafood, each year we take a roadtrip to the gulf and get shrimp from the independent owners when they come in early in the mornings. I never really appreciated how difficult it was for them to make a living and how hard they had to work to do it until I spent the time to meet and get to know them.

Earl, enjoyed my visit of this 'ship'. The stories it can probably tell, amazing.
