Dead Boat

Sometimes an old worn out, busted up, left for dead boat can be a good thing.

When that old worn out, busted up, left for dead relic of an eyesore can be repurposed as a fish habitat.

In Mississippi, the Tiger Shark, an old worn out, busted up, left to rot, marine hazard off Biloxi Beach has been towed off to the Gulf and sank, creating an artificial fish habitat for fishing.

The majority of the areas artificial reef habitats were lost during Hurricane Katrina. The Mississippi Resources Derelict Vessel Program has restored about 60 percent, much of that from derelict ships and barges.
