Bloomington, IL: 24 ft Harris FloteBote Gone in One Morning

A 24 ft Harris FloteBote 24 sat in a Bloomington yard for three seasons. The vinyl floor had bubbled up in patches, the bimini frame was snapped clean in half, and the tandem trailer underneath had rusted so badly the axles were questionable. No title in the drawer, handled per the Illinois rules for abandoned vessels. The real problem wasn't the boat's condition. It was access. The yard sat tight against two neighbors, and the only way out ran past a wooden fence and a mature oak that left maybe two feet of clearance on the driver's side. The trailer tires wouldn't hold air, and the frame was too compromised to trust under a full tow weight. We disconnected the pontoon from the trailer, loaded it onto our heavy-duty trailer, and winched the old frame onto a separate flatbed. Two trips out of Bloomington, the boat at our yard by early afternoon. The owner got a call when it landed. Crews cover all of McLean County: Normal, Randolph, Empire, Le Roy, Old Town, Heyworth. Most pickups happen the same week you call. Spring and fall see a lot of boats moving in and out of storage around Bloomington, so we schedule early those seasons, but we handle jobs year-round. A 24-footer like yours loads on a flatbed, and we handle the title paperwork and disposal so you don't have to.
