Though maybe legally in a Maritime Law sense salvage rights apply I often find it disturbing that people resort to these laws on the "small" sense. IMHO Salvage Maritime Law was written for big cargo ships in peril dead in the water.....not dingies, conter consoles or 30' sail boats that unfortunately broke away from thier mooring due to gear failure or foul play.
Just do the right thing and make some phone call to a few harbormaster shacks and yacht clubs, if no one calls you back from now till the end of the season its yours.
