Just in case - Yacht Pinshu

This dropped into my email today...

YACHT PINSHU - DISPOSAL NOTICE
MESSAGE FROM HASLAR MOORINGS MANAGER
PINSHU broke free from her anchor in the northern reaches of Portsmouth Harbour during Storm Dennis in February 2020, and ended up on our Fleetlands moorings.

Despite contacting QHM, local clubs and allowing additional time to compensate for Covid-19, we have not been able to locate her owner - this is our final attempt to make contact.

We have been told the owner may be Mark Brown, who might have worked in HMS Collingwood.

Please look at the picture below and get in touch with us if you have any news or need further information.

If we are still unable to find the owner, the boat will be disposed of at a local breaker's yard on 1 Feb 2021.

"broke free from her anchor "?

Looks like her owner wanted rid of her and just anchored her in a quiet corner and cleared off; leaving her to her fate.

Very irresponsible.

She's worth a bit in spare parts for Konsort owners.

bit judgemental no? having no idea of the facts of the matter. Particularly if its a Konsort, it would sell in a heartbeat if priced low and they really wanted rid.

The more charitable explanation is that the owner is old and/or infirm, and incapable of keeping an eye on things - maybe gone into care, or worse.

I went past that a week ago. Total wreck and looks stripped of parts.
Some windows and winches gone.
