The owner tried fixing the floor himself after an oak limb smashed the windshield. He gave up when his foot went right through the deck. That was when he picked up the phone and asked our crew to handle the boat removal for his Conroe home. The boat was a 19 ft Four Winns Horizon 190 with a white fiberglass hull and a navy blue stripe.
It sat on a concrete pad behind a duplex. Water had soaked through the broken canvas, softening the floor until it could not support a man’s weight. Our crew laid two wide aluminum ramps across the gunwales to bridge the bad spot. That let us reach the bow safely to attach our winch line without stepping inside the hull. We hand-cranked the bowrider onto our tilt trailer step by step so the stressed fiberglass would not flex and crack.
The hull below the deck was in good shape. A buyer at a local repair yard took the vessel to rebuild the deck and salvage the sterndrive. Removing a bowrider under 20 feet usually runs around $75 per foot on our rate sheet. Call 833-658-4847 if you need boat removal in Montgomery County.
In our experience, humid Texas weather turns cracked decks into spongy wood fast. Water pools under carpet after heavy rain, rotting the wood from below while mildew spreads. Before hauling any vessel for recycling, we drain all leftover fuel, strip the motor oil, and pull the marine battery for proper disposal. We take the title during the job, or we sign a release of liability so the craft is off your name.

Questions owners ask about a job like this
How to get rid of a bad boat?
Call us to pick up the vessel directly from your yard, driveway, or storage pad. We bring our own trucks, trailers, and winches to tow it away. Our crew takes care of loading, transportation, and proper disposal or scrap recycling so you do not have to drag it anywhere.
What if my boat engine is inoperable?
We haul vessels with locked, broken, or missing motors all the time. Our crew uses heavy winches, dollies, and ramps to load non-running craft onto our trailers safely. You do not need to get the engine running or repair the drive unit before we arrive to take the craft away.
Boat disposal across Montgomery County
Crews cover Montgomery County: Montgomery, Magnolia, Willis and Splendora. Summer heat and wet spring weather in this region quickly ruin exposed upholstery and rust old trailer axles. Boat owners across the area call us when old project vessels sit too long and start holding rainwater.
