Default RE: What is up with this boat???

I don't know anything about the boat, but I'm pretty sure there is more to salvor rights than just claiming an abandoned vessel. I believe the vessel has to be in immediate danger and you have to have permission from the owner, but I could be wrong. Even then I believe a fee is usually arranged, the salvor doesn't always keep the boat. I've done some reading on it and it seems pretty complicated.
