More details to this question:
I have a summer home/rental property and just found out that a neighbor damaged one of our boats. He will not admit to doing it, but I have witnesses who told me it was him. We believe that it was damaged over a year ago. Can we sue?

Yes, the statute of limitations for both negligence and intentional acts in Florida is 4 years. Be prepared to have your witnesses testify, though. If the damages are under $5,000 you can do it yourself in small claims court.
