How I can do that? The number plate is very old and from a foreign country...
As an example , out here if a boat is found floating crewless or has been abandoned illegally on someone's property those registration numbers are used to locate the owners . As a matter of fact occasionally a foreign boat or it's remains is found floating in our territorial waters and the local authorities have traced ownership back to point of origin . Is there a Spanish recreational/commercial vessel registry there ? If that number was issued in your country then some government agency ought to be able to find out who it belongs to. |
Maybe I missed something, apologies if I did but if the boat is at a marina he's paying a fee to keep it there, can't you go to the office and see who's paying the bills?

Even beinga couple years ago, I bet someone at the marina knows something about that boat. I would call them if I wanted info on it.
|
Exactly as Madbouyz said, the ship is no longer there since approximately the end of 2019 ... Maybe now it is, which I don't think but who knows ... I will confirm it shortly since I will be there again, for the moment I can call... I will inform of that call!
|
Anyway, it has been standing there for many years, surely it was abandoned and because of its sentimental value or something like that, it was there, I don't think anyone paid a fee to be standing and more so as a foreigner, hopefully all doubts will be resolved when I asked for
|
So ... What do you think of this boat, its condition, what is its value ... What would you do ... I know that it is difficult to give an opinion, but to do it with the photos that are there

Have a look at this thread….
https://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/...-38-resto.html This is a similar boat that has been left outside for a while. The OP is doing an amazing restoration. You don’t need to read the whole thread, have a look at the pictures in the first post to get an idea of what you might find in an old boat. Most people wouldn’t take on a job that big, it takes a fanatic with good skills and a lot of patience. Without knowing a lot more about the boat you’ve been following, it could be a wreck. Transom, stringers, floor, interior, electrical, and that’s before you even look at the engines! Good luck. Rr |

Rr Thank you very much for teaching me such a good thread, how good to see someone restore these beauties, and if ... You are not wrong in anything you say ... I was currently looking for information about the ship, etc ... Maybe one day I ended up the same as that thread, at the moment I am informing myself of everything, so thank you. And as you say, it would be a super hard job and a lot of patience but that is really nice and in terms of costs, they will also be high but with love and affection haha. |
And regarding the condition of the ship, it would be something similar to that insurance, perhaps a little better because it is a little more modern I think ... And it has not been standing since the year 90, it has been a little less ... But who knows, and the engines really looked whole but I don't know in what state. Not very good I guess, what would you do ??? Would they get into a project like that? I really love that boat hahaha
