Now tell me how this is different from people who want the government( of other countries too!) to ‘rescue’ them and pay for their own bad judgement.

salvage law at sea is different from “just a tow” on land.

The salvor is entitled to a percentage of the value of the vessel. In this case it is probably MORE than the value of the vessel. I would submit it is cheeper to buy a whole new boat.
