Harbours throughout WA are teeming with the rusty hulls of abandoned boats, and its an issue that’s becoming a pain for maritime authorities.

As reported by WAtoday, the Department of Transport have been busy removing abandoned boats in an effort to clear space in waterways.

Press PLAY to hear more about the plight of ghost boats

DoT safety management director Mark Briant told Millsy and Karl onĀ 6PR Breakfast they go to great lengths to work with owners and try to solve the issue before removing vessels.

“If they decide they just want to try and walk away, then unfortunately the department has to go through the process of getting a court order to remove it,” Mr Briant said.
