AITAH for wanting my brother to pay me back still even if he’s in a rough spot after he fled the State

I’m 24m and my brother is 22m. Growing up our grandad had a boat he would take us fishing on. After he passed the boat went to my mom (his daughter) and my dad. My parents never did anything with the boat really and my brother who loves fishing always said he would have the boat when he moved out.

Well my parents split and my brother and I found a place together and he took the boat there with parents approval. After we both had to move out due to toxic landlords he lived with an aunt and I couch surfed at friends houses and I got a storage unit with most my shit and the boat because he couldn’t bring it there I guess. After I found a place I got all my stuff and the only thing in the unit was the boat. I told my dad and brother that they need to help pay for the unit or just take the boat. They did neither but didn’t want me to just abandon the unit and give up the boat because it belonged to my grandad.

Well after paying over $700 in storage unit fees I was able to get a friend to take the boat to my house with his truck. I told my brother and dad that they had 2 months to take the boat off my yard or they would owe me 700 for it. They didn’t take it. 2 years later my brother stole the boat. I texted and confronted him and he tried gaslighting me. I don’t think I have any legal right I guess so I left it be but wanted that money and after not getting it I cut him off. Well when he had a kid I was pressured into forgiving him but deep down still wanted it. He gave me 150 to “make things up” but that’s not 700. I get it though. New kid. Lifes tough. So I didn’t push. But would state that I’d want the rest at some point after paying so much to keep the boat after he desperately wanted me to.

Now he has a bench warrant for his arrest for driving violations and he fled the state with his girl and 4 month old to a different state and things are chaotic for him and rough. They are staying at some family members of his girl. Ik things are tough but I had brought up to him and some family that at some point I still want the rest of the money back after he asked to borrow some money from me. And my brother and family make it seem like I’m rude for expressing that at some point I’d still like to be paid the rest of the amount. Am I wrong?
