Dale's take on Sherwood

I get calls from Sherwood from people in two situations mostly. One is the sailor who dropped the mast one fall and never rigged it back up. The boat sat in the slip or storage lot, fees stacking every month, until the cost of keeping it moored outran any reason to own it. The other is the estate, or the house that came with a sailboat nobody in the family sails. The survey failed years ago, the restoration stalled at the deck core, or it's a trailer sailer that's been parked behind the garage so long it's become part of the landscape. Either way, the boat stops being a boat and starts being a problem.

We handle sailboat disposal start to finish in Sherwood and across Pulaski County, including McAlmont and North Little Rock on the same trip if you need it. The crew comes out, we rig it down, load the old sailboat, and tow it out. Missing title or paperwork doesn't stop the job. Full details on how we handle the haul and what comes next are on the Arkansas sailboat disposal page.

What's covered

What sailboat disposal covers in Sherwood

Sailboat disposal in Sherwood means we handle the full breakdown of your vessel from start to finish. The mast comes down, standing rigging gets cut away or salvaged, and the keel comes out at our yard with its scrap value credited against the price. Before the fiberglass hull is cut and routed to the processor, we speak for usable sails, winches, and hardware. For boats in the water, we run the haul-out and manage the marina or boatyard conversation, so you don't juggle vendors. Whether your sailboat sits in a driveway, storage lot, or on stands, the process works the same way. See the steps below to learn how scheduling works from here.

How sailboat disposal in Sherwood works

  1. 1

    Send photos, rig status, and the pickup ZIP

    Length, keel type, whether the mast is up or already down, and access notes for the yard or slip in Sherwood. Photos of the rig and any winches or hardware set the number.

  2. 2

    Get a firm quote back the same day

    One number covers rig-down through disposal. Keel scrap value is credited off the total up front, not owed back after.

  3. 3

    Schedule pickup and marina coordination in Sherwood

    If the boat is in a slip we run the marina office and the crane call. On stands or on a trailer we set a date and window; the crew calls when they are an hour out.

  4. 4

    Rig-down and load

    Mast unstepped, standing rigging cut or salvaged, spreaders and boom stacked and strapped. Usable sails, winches, and hardware come off before the hull leaves.

  5. 5

    Keel out, hull processed, documentation

    The keel is unbolted or cut at our yard, weighed, and sold to the metal recycler; the fiberglass hull is cut down and routed to a processor. You get proof of disposal and the hull ID record.

    Metal keel, rigging, winches, and salvageable hardware are routed to recyclers first. Only what a facility refuses ends up in a landfill.

The starting number at the top of this page is real. Length, keel type, and whether the boat sits in the water or on the hard move it from there. Lead keel scrap value is credited off — details on the Arkansas sailboat disposal pricing section.

Common questions about Sherwood sailboat disposal

How much does it cost to get rid of a sailboat in Sherwood?
Cost tracks length, keel type, and whether the boat sits in the water or on the hard. The pricing section above shows the range. Lead keel scrap value gets credited off the number, and a firm quote comes back from photos.
Can you take a sailboat straight out of a marina slip?
Yes — slip pickups are routine. We call the marina, book the crane, and pull the mast on the ramp if that is where it makes sense. One point of contact all the way through.
Is the lead keel worth anything?
A lead keel is often the most valuable single piece of an older sailboat. Weight times the scrap rate credits back against the quote. Iron keels do the same at a lower rate.
Should I just donate the sailboat instead?
Donation makes sense for a boat with survey value — a runnable diesel, sound decks, a rig that will not fail on inspection. Send photos and I will tell you which way yours leans; if the numbers work for a charity, I will say so first.
What happens to the mast, rigging, and sails?
We unstep the mast, coil or salvage the standing rigging, and pull winches, cleats, and any usable sails before the hull leaves. Metals get recycled and sails get sold or donated when they are still good.
Do I need a title to dispose of a sailboat in Sherwood?
Whatever the paperwork situation, the pickup still happens. The legal specifics for Arkansas sit on the boat-removal page. You get proof of disposal at the end.
What if the boat has been sitting on stands for years?
Years on stands is our most common call. Seized hardware, stained hulls, corroded rigging — none of that changes whether we take the job. The quote already assumes the boat has been sitting.
