    This is exactly why I don’t have a multimillion dollar home on the water with a million dollar yacht at my dock .
  • The home owner should be charging a handsome storage fee to the insurance company!
  • As someone who know yachts, that's is NOT considered a megayacht. Nice Montecarlo though!

    That is now the worlds sickest backyard man cave
  • I would think that they could make an exception on the mangrove issue since it was a natural disaster? Beautiful boat. Best Wishes
  • Insurance is probably the biggest hold up. Once payment for moving and repairs is commissioned, things usually move pretty fast.
  • Umm, 65ft is not a megayacht. Not even double that is a megayacht these days. 45 meters or more (~150ft) is a megayacht. That being said, those shafts are probably bent.
  • Lucky they are good neighbors, he could be charging him by the day for dry storage 🤔

    Something isn’t adding up. By yacht standards a 65ft Marquis isn’t insanely expensive and the amount of damage I see plus the removal cost is creeping into what the boat cost when it was new. I’ve seen insurance companies total more expensive boats with less damage during hurricanes.

    That’ll be a recovery I don’t wanna miss!

    Late summer of 1948, we visited my uncle and aunt in Boston. Sight seeing with them my uncle took us past what my uncle said was a 200 foot ship/yacht (???) that had been deposited more than 300 feet inland over the top of a major highway as reported in local news. I was only 12 and dont remember the name of the storm but I remember the vision of that boat sitting up high on the roadside way inland. 60 footer, pshaw.!

    Mangroves?? The most popular growth in Florida, besides clamidia in The Villages. I would let my kids make a wicked fort out of it.

    You have to use the sky crane or a sky king helicopter to airlift it.
  • Just patch up and be ready to set sail during the next hurricane.
  • This boat could easily be moved with cheap inflatable pontoons and pushed or pulled backwards. The thing about boats is their tendancy to float.
