Sailboat disposal is its own trade inside boat removal. A mast has to come down before anything moves, a keel changes how the hull sits on a trailer, and a ballast keel adds weight no bowrider ever had. The jobs on this page are sailboats: day sailors from driveways, liveaboards from slips, hulls with masts that had not been stepped in a decade.
The sequence matters more than the muscle on these jobs. Rigging first, mast down, then the hull moves like any other boat. The posts below walk through real examples, including the ones where the rigging fought back.
