A ski boat in a yard usually means somebody stopped skiing ten years ago. A home builder bought a property in Annapolis Neck, MD, and needed this 19 ft tan and brown Correct Craft Sport Nautique gone before his dirt crew arrived. The boat sat on a rusty trailer next to the garage, flat on the grass.
The ground was pure mud from recent rains, so backed-in heavy haul trucks would sink to the axles. Our crew walked in with gas saws, pry bars, and saw horses. We cut the fiberglass hull into four-foot panels right on the spot, keeping the blade high enough to avoid striking the mud and throwing teeth off the chain. We unbolted the heavy inboard engine, lifted it out with a portable tripod hoist, and loaded the piece-by-piece sections into our haul trailer parked out on the solid asphalt driveway.
We brought the fiberglass hull parts to a landfill that takes them and took the engine and metal trim to a scrap yard for recycling. Our price sheet lists boats under 20 feet at about $75 a foot. Call 833-658-4847 if you need boat removal in Annapolis Neck or anywhere in Anne Arundel County.
In our experience, ski boats sitting in wet Maryland grass soak up moisture through the floor and rot the interior wood long before the engine gives out. Before we haul any hull, our crew drains all leftover gasoline, pulls the motor oil, and removes the lead battery to keep hazardous materials out of the dirt.

Boat removal questions from Annapolis Neck owners
What happens to my boat after removal?
We tow intact boats on good trailers directly to processing centers. If we cut the hull apart, we haul the fiberglass to a facility that takes it and deliver all steel, aluminum, and brass hardware to local scrap metal yards for recycling.
Do I need a title to have my boat removed?
No, a title is helpful but not mandatory. When you have the paper title, we take it from you at the site. If the title is missing, our crew signs a release of liability form with you so the boat is completely off your name.
Boat removal and disposal around Annapolis Neck
Crews cover Anne Arundel County: Annapolis, Highland Beach, Severn and Glen Burnie. Hot summers and wet spring weather leave many stored vessels with rusted trailer frames and standing water inside the hull. Property buyers and boat owners frequently call us in June to clear out these old yard obstructions before home construction starts.
