Hauling a 19 ft Ski Boat from a Pasadena Hills Side Yard

Neighbors in Pasadena Hills noticed the 19 ft Correct Craft Sport Nautique sitting unused for years. The burgundy hull and white deck sat beside the garage, taking up space. A widow called us because she wanted her side yard cleared out and could not move the inboard ski boat herself.

The main challenge was pulling the rig down a steep driveway onto a narrow street. Our crew used a heavy snatch block anchored to our truck frame to control the descent slowly. Before rolling it down, we checked the tire beads on the trailer so it would not slip off the rims mid-pull.

We hauled the fiberglass hull to a landfill that accepts it and took the scrap metals to a yard for recycling. Our price sheet lists boats under 20 feet at about $75 a foot. If you need boat removal in Pasco County, call 833-658-4847.

In our experience, June heat, high humidity, and afternoon storms quickly turn an outdoor boat into a pool of rainwater and algae. We always drain all hazardous materials like fuel and engine oil, and remove the battery before any recycling occurs. When a title exists, we take it directly, or we sign a release of liability so the boat is off your name.

What Pasadena Hills boat owners ask us

Is my old boat worth anything?

Most old or broken boats cost more to repair than they are worth. If the engine is seized and the fiberglass is compromised, the scrap value of the metal rarely covers the cost to tow and haul it. We provide complete disposal when the vessel has no resale value left.

How to get rid of a bad boat?

Call our crew to handle the heavy lifting. We load the vessel onto our trailer or cut up the hull if access is tight. We transport the motor, metal hardware, and fiberglass to facilities that process them properly, taking the vessel completely off your property.
