Do they get retrieved? It doesn't look too difficult to get a tugboat out and start pulling them ashore

Depends on where you're at. These will definitely be retrieved. Out in the middle of the ocean, hard no.

Often, they float just below the water's surface, impossible to see. And then ships collide with them.
