The owner in Saddle Brook tried to fix his boat himself after a storm. He spent three weekends trying to haul out a 20 foot Chaparral Sunesta 200 with a white fiberglass hull and a faded navy blue stripe. A fallen oak limb had smashed the windshield and crushed the seats. When his winch cable snapped, he called us for help.
Our crew arrived at the sandy lot near the water. The boat sat on an old dual-axle trailer, but the tires were flat and cracked down to the cords. We did not risk rolling it on those rims. We backed our flatbed truck close, cleared the broken tree branches, and ran heavy nylon straps under the hull frame. Using our hydraulic winch, we slid the deck boat and the bad trailer straight onto the bed together.
The hull was still sound under the surface damage. We hauled the Chaparral to a repair yard that reclaims usable fiberglass hulls. Boats over 20 feet are priced over the phone, because size and setting change the work. If you need boat removal in Saddle Brook or Bergen County, call 833-658-4847.
In our experience, wet snow loads from late winter tear canvas covers and let rain collect inside deck boats during spring. Before tow away, our crew always pumps out old gas, drains motor oil, and pulls the battery for safe disposal. When the boat has a title, we take it on site, or we sign a release of liability so the craft is completely off your name.

Boat removal questions from Saddle Brook owners
What if my boat is on a trailer?
We tow or haul the boat and the trailer together. If the trailer tires are flat or the frame is rusted through, our crew winches the whole rig onto our flatbed transport truck so you do not have to fix it first.
How to get rid of a bad boat?
Call our team to handle the entire job. We come to your property, load the vessel safely, and tow it away for proper disposal, salvage, or recycling so you do not have to haul it to a dump yourself.
