Tampa area · Salvage & restore

She was stolen. She sank. I brought Megalodon back up.

I’m Mike Prime. This is my yacht — taken in 2018, passed through bad hands, sunk in Biscayne Bay, then salvaged. The restore is underway, and I’m documenting every day so new visitors can see the boat for themselves.
