Wow! That's a lot of boat moving, probably take time for trees and vegetation to get back in shape again.

Probably just two, but the bulldozer clearing the land broke down in the middle of the track so it might only be one if it can't be repaired and moved out of the way.

The salvage guys have a fuel barge on the rocks elsewhere that needs them real quick but they are gonna try the last 2 before they go....
The Rotary club paid for all of the boats to be moved, great guys....it wasn't pro bono but close...ha ha
