Dale's take on Tamiami

I get two calls a lot from Tamiami. First, the sailboat where the mast came down one fall and never went back up. Maybe the rigging corroded, maybe the owner got older, maybe life just moved on. It sits in a slip or storage lot, the fees pile up, and one day someone says enough. Second, the inheritance boat. The house came with a sailboat out back or in a Miami-Dade County marina, nobody in the family sails, and the estate needs it gone before the property closes. The slip fees don't stop waiting.

We handle sailboat disposal start to finish in Tamiami, Sweetwater, and Westwood Lakes. we bring a trailer, takes down what's left of the rig, and tows the old sailboat out. If the title's missing or the survey killed the sale, that doesn't stop us. We work through it. Details on how we handle the rest of the job, the hull, and the paperwork are on the sailboat disposal page.

What's covered

What sailboat disposal covers in Tamiami

Sailboat disposal in Tamiami means we handle the entire vessel from start to finish. The mast comes down and standing rigging is cut away or salvaged. At our yard, the keel comes out and its scrap value credits against your price. Usable sails, winches, and hardware are spoken for before the fiberglass hull gets cut down and routed to the processor. For in-water pickups, we run the haul-out and handle the marina conversation so you don't have to manage vendors. Whether your boat sits in a boatyard, storage lot, or on stands, we do the work. Crews in nearby Kendale Lakes and Fountainebleau handle the same process. The steps below show how scheduling works.

A 19 ft Wellcraft 196 bowrider sat in a Tamiami driveway with a torn mooring cover packed full of leaves and debris. The trailer underneath had two flat tires and hadn't moved in years. The owner had passed, and the family executor needed it gone before the estate could close.

How sailboat disposal in Tamiami 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 Tamiami. 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 Tamiami

    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 Florida sailboat disposal pricing section.

Common questions about Tamiami sailboat disposal

How much does it cost to get rid of a sailboat in Tamiami?
Length and keel type set most of it. Lead scrap value credits back against the number. Send photos of the boat and the rig and the quote comes back the same day, firm.
Can you take a sailboat straight out of a marina slip?
Yes. We run the haul-out, coordinate the crane if the mast needs pulling first, and handle the marina office. You do not manage three vendors to lose one sailboat.
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 works when the boat still has resale value. A stalled restoration or a stripped hull almost never qualifies. Send photos and I will tell you honestly which route makes sense.
What happens to the mast, rigging, and sails?
Mast comes down first, standing rigging is cut or salvaged, and the metal goes to recycling. Usable sails, winches, and cleats get pulled and credited back when they are worth pulling. Nothing marketable goes to the landfill.
Do I need a title to dispose of a sailboat in Tamiami?
Titling questions belong on the Florida 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?
A boat on stands for a decade is exactly what this service is for. Nothing about the condition surprises the crew. The quote is built for boats that need the work we are already doing.
