State working to seize sunken sailboat in Snohomish River
EVERETT — The state is acting fast to rid the Snohomish River of another unwanted junk boat.
The state Department of Natural Resource’s Derelict Vessels Removal Program issued a notice on Tuesday to seize a second sunken boat north of the Langus Park boat launch, program manager Troy Wood said.
The owner has until Sept. 30 to take responsibility for the 50-foot sailboat before the state takes custody.
Wood said the owner has been involved with derelict boats in the past: one in Poulsbo and another near Bainbridge Island.
“That’s why we started the custody process as soon as we could,” he said.
