If you are wondering who bought the F/V Westward, the derelict fishing vessel moored in Boothbay Harbor the last two years, you will need to wait a little longer for the answer.

The U.S. Marshals Service reported there was a successful bid during the October 26 auction of the vessel, but the bidder must be approved by a U.S. District Court judge before the sale is official and the owner’s name can be made public. The judge is expected to affirm the sale by November 10.

Stay tuned.
