1/29/2024 – This vessel appears to be taking on water (possibly rain) and is sitting very low in the water.
Reported to KCSO on 1/30. They will contact Jared Hofer, as needed and check in/pump out or remove the vessel. Vessel owner is unknown. DNR has not had any calls or responses from posting the vessel for trespass on state-owned aquatic lands in August 2023.
This vessel is now sitting 1.5″ below its design waterline … prior photos show the bobstay fitting above the water … now it’s submerged. The mast spreaders have totally rotted off … and the upper topmast is rotten … the deck, deck house, and cabin is now almost “organic” … with debris and growth all over. The interior is strewn with garbage, cans and who knows. The Dacron anchor warp has slipped the bow sheave and is wedged in between. NOTE: Please don’t let this vessel linger until it sinks like the one off Fjord Drive/Lemolo shore … that bears at low water but is marked with a single worn orange ball fender so jet skis and recreational folk don’t run into it. I can forward updated photos.
