Dale's take on Marietta

The mast came down one fall and never went back up. Maybe the rigging failed, or the boat sat so long in a Cobb County slip that the fees outran any reason to keep her. Maybe you inherited a sailboat with a lake house you didn't want, or a trailer sailer that's been buried behind the garage for a decade. The survey came back with soft deck core, the sale fell through, and now you're looking at a boat that won't move and costs money every month it stays put.

We handle sailboat disposal in Marietta from start to finish. The crew covers Fair Oaks and Smyrna on the same trip, de-rig, load, and tow. Missing paperwork, unclear title, storage lot access issues, dry storage complications,none of that stops the job. Details on how we work through it all are on the Georgia sailboat disposal page.

What's covered

What sailboat disposal covers in Marietta

Sailboat disposal in Marietta means we handle the entire vessel from removal through recycling. 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 spoken for before the fiberglass hull gets cut and routed to the processor. For boats in the water, we run the haul-out and manage the marina or boatyard conversation so you don't have to deal with multiple vendors. The process steps below show how scheduling works.

A job we ran in Marietta

Reinell 190 removal Marietta GA

Marietta, GA: 19 ft Reinell Gone in One Morning

A 19 ft Reinell 190 bowrider sat in a Marietta driveway with a cracked engine block, the result of sitting through a hard freeze without winterization. The fiberglass hull was sound, but the powerplant was gone. The trailer was serviceable, which helped, but the boat had settled into the yard over time and the access was tight, with a narrow gate and a turn that didn't leave much room for the hauler.

How sailboat disposal in Marietta 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 Marietta. 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 Marietta

    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 Georgia sailboat disposal pricing section.

Common questions about Marietta sailboat disposal

How much does it cost to get rid of a sailboat in Marietta?
Depends on hull length, keel type, and where it sits. The pricing section above shows the range for Marietta. Whatever the keel weighs in lead comes off the price up front.
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?
Yes. Lead recovers more per pound at scrap than iron, and the value gets credited against the price. We confirm keel type from photos before we quote because it moves the number more than almost anything else.
Should I just donate the sailboat instead?
If a charity can resell your boat, donation is the best deal going. Boats that sat neglected for years usually will not pass survey. Send photos and I will tell you which side of that line yours falls on.
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 Marietta?
Missing paperwork does not stop the pickup. What Georgia requires for the paperwork side lives on the Georgia boat-removal page, in the legal section. We handle what we can from our end.
What if the boat has been sitting on stands for years?
Time on stands does not stop the pickup. Rot, missing bottom paint, stuck through-hulls — every one of those is normal for a boat like that. The quote factors it in.
