This Pathfinder 2200 spent a decade fishing the bay before the engine died. It sat in a Rockport side yard next to the garage until city code enforcement sent a notice. The faded dark green hull held rainwater, and weeds grew high around the white fiberglass deck.
The only exit path led under low oak branches and a service power line. Our crew backed our truck into the narrow space between the house and fence. We dropped the air out of the boat trailer tires to lower the overall height by four inches. That extra clearance gave us just enough room to clear the low overhead hazards without touching the line.
We pumped out the stagnant water, loaded the vessel, and towed it to a salvage yard for recycling. Boats over 20 feet are priced over the phone, because size and setting change the work. If you need boat removal in Rockport or Aransas County, call 833-658-4847.
In our experience, humid coastal weather speeds up trailer rust and locks up wheel bearings on sitting rigs. Before haul away, we pull the battery, drain the fuel tank, and strip all oil to prevent spills during transport. We take the title when you have it, and if it is missing, we sign a release of liability so the boat is off your name.

Before you call: two common questions
What if my boat is on a trailer?
We tow the trailer directly if the tires and axle are solid. If the rig is rusted out or the tires are flat, our crew winches the whole setup onto our flatbed trailer for safe haul away.
Can you take a boat to the junk yard?
Yes, our crew hauls old vessels to a local salvage yard or a disposal facility that handles fiberglass hulls. We make sure the boat goes through proper disposal and recycling instead of sitting on your property.
Where our crews work around Rockport
Crews cover Aransas County: Fulton. Early summer weather brings hot sun and heavy rains, which causes standing water in open hulls. Boat owners usually call us to clear out these yard hazards before city inspectors issue fines or the humidity ruins the remaining equipment.
