We joined local environmental nonprofit Wounded Nature–Working Veterans for a firsthand look at how abandoned boats are damaging Lowcountry waterways. These vessels threaten our ecosystems, public safety, and coastal way of life. We’re committed to working toward real solutions. live5news.com/2025/05/27/sta…
