Unserviceable vessels to be altogether removed from harbour.

57. No vessel which shall be laid by or neglected as unfit for sea service
shall be permitted to lie within the limits of the harbour, dock, or pier, but

owner thereof, removed from the harbour, dock, or pier, and laid on any part
of the strand or sea shore, or other place where the same may, without injury
to any person, be placed; and the charges of removing or placing such vessel
may be recovered from the owner of such vessel by summary complaint, in...
Ireland before any justice of the peace...; and in case of refusal or neglect
of payment of such charges for the space of seven days after having been

apparel, or furniture thereof, or any part thereof, and the justice... shall
