Dale's take on Redlands

I get calls from people who bought a sailboat ten, fifteen years ago and life moved on. One guy had a 26-footer in dry storage behind his garage in Redlands. The mast came down one fall and never went back up. Another inherited a slip at a marina when she took over her mother's house, and the boat that came with it hadn't sailed in five years. The slip fees kept coming. She kept paying them. One day she called and said enough.

Hansons Boat Removal handles the old sailboat start to finish. We work Redlands and the surrounding area, same trip takes us through Mentone and Highland, so we can consolidate jobs across San Bernardino County. We rig down, we tow, we handle the paperwork. Missing documentation doesn't stop us. The full breakdown of what happens to the boat, the rig, and the hull lives on the sailboat disposal page. Call us with the address and what condition it's in, and we'll tell you what it costs.

What's covered

What sailboat disposal covers in Redlands

Sailboat disposal in Redlands means we handle the full breakdown of your vessel from start to finish. The mast comes down and standing rigging is cut away or salvaged. We pull the keel at our yard and credit its scrap value against your cost. Usable sails, winches, and hardware are set aside before the fiberglass hull gets cut and routed to the processor. Whether your boat sits in a storage lot, on a driveway, or needs haul-out from the water, we run the whole job. You don't manage marina conversations or coordinate vendors. We also serve Loma Linda and San Bernardino when the boat is closer to those yards. The process steps below show how scheduling works from your first call.

A job we ran in Redlands

Catalina 27 removal Redlands CA

Redlands, CA: 27 ft Catalina Gone in One Morning

A 27 ft Catalina 27 had been parked on concrete blocks in a Redlands driveway for four years. The standing rigging was seized solid, the sails were rotted inside their bags, and the fiberglass hull had chalked white in the Southern California sun. The owner had inherited it from a relative, never used it, and finally decided it had to go.

How sailboat disposal in Redlands 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 Redlands. 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 Redlands

    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 California sailboat disposal pricing section.

Common questions about Redlands sailboat disposal

How much does it cost to get rid of a sailboat in Redlands?
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?
Slip-out pickups are one of the most common calls. Crane time, marina paperwork, and the mast conversation happen on our side. You approve the schedule and we handle the rest.
Is the lead keel worth anything?
Lead keels carry real scrap value, and that value comes off your price up front. Iron brings less. Photos of the keel and the boat get us to the right number before we schedule.
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?
The mast comes down at the boat or at our yard, then metal recycling handles the rigging. Sails and hardware in decent shape come off first and are spoken for before the hull is cut.
Do I need a title to dispose of a sailboat in Redlands?
Titling questions belong on the California boat-removal page's legal section. On our side, missing paperwork does not stop the job — proof of disposal comes back to you when the work is done.
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.
