Authorities are still trying to figure out what to do with a boat that ran aground on Dockweiler State Beach.

Authorities are still trying to figure out what to do with a boat that ran aground on Dockweiler State Beach near LAX.

The boat's anchor broke Sunday morning, and high winds pushed the vessel ashore, where it's been stuck ever since.

The captain, who actually lives on the 46-foot boat, wasn't hurt.

A tow boat approached the area on Wednesday morning during high tide in hopes the water would be deep enough to haul away the stuck ship, but it didn't work.

Now, crews may have to simply cut the boat up and take it away piece by piece.
