much snipped

This will result in fewer people on low incomes having licences,
therefore more section 8 boats and more cheaper boats (under £1000)
being destroyed.

Auction ALL section 8 boats (as before) not destroy the fewer and
fewer remaining small cruisers that happen to become public property
due to section 8.  Put them on ebay at 99p start, no reserve, buyer
to licence and collect immediately.  Payment should be made
immediately and if the situation is not resolved within two weeks,
the ownership returns to BW and it's auctioned again.  Ebay costs
very little.

Just to answer this part of your email. BW destroy all cheap boats because 
they cause BW the most trouble. These are the boats that tend to end up with 
no licence, bss etc. They are very often bought by people with little 
resources to keep them and then BW has to go through the section 8 procedure 
again. It is purely an economic decision.
