Thanks for sharing this!!!

Really a drag as it's a constant hazard and source of pollution to the river. Not to mention an eyesore floating just across from Rowena.

Wish some agency with teeth could hold the lame owners responsible to clean up this rotting pile of sh@t before it sinks. That happens, and it will probably never be salvaged.

I met that guy while having a burger at the Corner Pocket in Lyle (great big burgers there). He's a good guy and trying his best to make a living and help the river. We should support him.
