eBay is a good way to lose headache Boats.
I suspect the geyser who bought it was on the sauce that night and built up some fantasy about the Boat one day being a marvellous superyacht when without beer goggles it was clearly just irritating and awkward scrap.
I suspect it will get quietly cut up and turned into washing machines.
Interesting approach to ask good money for it but its not that good really is it. Heavily modified more than once hardly any of the original is still left.

I think that's a bit uncharitable. After all he had the resources to raise it and transport it, and given the time gone by and that he did a full survey and all that, I'd say he had a fair go. Some things just don't work out.
A favourite anecdote; after the film 'Raise the Titanic' proved to be a massive box-office bomb, the director commented that "...it would have been cheaper to lower the Atlantic..."
🤣🤣🤣

I did wonder at the time if there was a plan to have a series about it but it never gained traction.
I imagine once the ownership change had been established the geyser had few options. He was either going to get a big bill for disposal or move it himself.
Didn't seem like the sort of person who would disappear into a wooded valley and live a sustenance lifestyle if send a demanding letter in the post.
