Ocupan plazas que limitan la actividad comercial y, además, no pagan las correspondientes tasas por el alquiler del amarre. Se trata de buques que la propia Administración del Estado ha dejado abandonados bajo la tutela de los puertos, a la espera de una decisión que o bien termine con su desguace o bien acabe con una subasta.
