I get calls from people who bought a sailboat thinking they'd use it, then didn't. The mast came down one fall in St. Joseph County and never went back up. Or the slip fees kept climbing, year after year, and one day the owner did the math and realized they'd spent more on storage than the boat was worth. I've hauled sailboats out of estates where nobody in the family sails, boats that came with a lake house purchase and turned into a liability instead of an asset. Sometimes a rigging survey kills a sale before it starts, and the owner's stuck with a boat that won't move and costs money to keep.
We handle sailboat disposal start to finish. The crew works South Bend and the surrounding area, same trip taking us through Notre Dame and Roseland when we're pulling multiple jobs. We come load it, rig it down, tow it out, and handle the paperwork. Missing titles, unclear ownership, salvage questions, boats sitting in dry storage for a decade,none of that stops the work. The details on how we manage the old sailboat and what happens next are on the Indiana sailboat disposal page.
