Predictable. One time owner of boat at Santa Cruz Harbor can't afford slip rental, insurance, or haulout. Moves out of town, or graduates. Owner sells or gives boat to a student or homeless person. Harbor busts them for living aboard without permission. Boat is abandoned, or more often someone tows the boat and anchors for free off Seabright Beach. Minimal anchor gear drags and boat ends up on beach. Boat is towed off by Vessel Assist and returned to Santa Cruz Harbor where it is tied up on delinquency dock. Half a dozen or more of these delinquent boats are sent to the boatyard, hauled, broken up, put in dumpsters, and taken to landfill, engines, masts, and sails included. Harbor is reimbursed by state for cleaning navigable waterway. A slip has now been opened for a newer, higher class of renter. There were 14 boats in this pile-on.
