I get calls from people who've already tried to sell. The mast came down one fall in someone's yard near Cook County, and it never went back up. Ten years later, the boat's still there, the rigging's corroded, and the owner's tired of looking at it. Or there's the slip fee that kept climbing at the marina, the boat getting used less, until one day the math didn't work anymore. Someone inherits a lake house and the sailboat with it, but nobody in the family sails. A failed survey killed the sale. A restoration stalled at the deck core. A trailer sailer buried behind the garage for a decade. That's Orland Park.
We handle sailboat disposal from start to finish. The crew works Orland Park and nearby Orland and Orland Hills on the same trip, so we're efficient about it. We rig the boat down, tow it out, and handle the paperwork. If the title's missing or the registration lapsed, that doesn't stop us. You get a document when it's done. Details on how we work through the whole process are on the sailboat disposal page.
