Davis is now heartbroken.

"That's my life, that's my dream. It's the only place I can afford life," said Davis. "I can get it back, it's still out there. A lot of people are worse off than I am. I will get my vessel back, hopefully, she's still afloat."

Davis is living in a van with his dogs for now.
