What brand and where did you get that puller come along?

[@CaptainRetriever]

These were Lincoln Hoist, but we have a few different brands.

How much does it cost to remove a boat that is sinking in the intercostal waters won 1:19

[@CaptainRetriever]

@@SVANERT we’re getting $225 a foot+ depending on how bad it is

[@pauliefromphilly]

how busy are you guys??? you're gonna have work for months..

[@CaptainRetriever]

We’re on the east coast, it was mostly a lot of rain and some tropical storm force winds, so we’re not too busy. Towing has been up lately though..

[@TheCapthof]

Lot of milfoil, weeds on that boat looks like its been submerged for a while.

[@CaptainRetriever]

It’s the north fork of the St Lucie river, continual outflow piling it up, but I did hear after the fact it wasn’t a recent casualty.

[@MB12116]

Did you have to ask permission to use the neighbors pier?

[@CaptainRetriever]

It’s all part of the same community dock, didn’t put much pressure on it, or tweak any pilings (mostly just a roll). The last bit of vertical lift was done with my boat’s cleat.

[@MB12116]

@@CaptainRetriever gotcha. Some neighbors can be real a-holes. Good luck, and stay safe. Great work too, as a one man team and keep making these vids, they are equally great.
