Been meaning to photograph this ship wreck for months but everytime i have passed people have been fishing by it or other photographers have been taking photos too, its been left there for years, would love to know the background to who owns it and why its been left there and not removed

First one is my fave mate. The Sarsia used to be a fishing exploration ship and was built in the mid 50's. It was in service until about 1986 then some guy bought it and had started to convert it into a luxury yacht but it ground to a halt and the mooring fees soon piled up. The boat was towed to where it is now when the port authorities impounded it due to the unpaid mooring fees and rumour has it that kids did something to it to sink it. Its just been left there as its not really in the way of anything and would be a costly operation to remove it now due to its current condition

That story was boring for a ship wreck,
Could have spiced it up a bit
