26 ft Pearson Removal in Hoover, AL

A 26 ft Pearson 26 had been sitting on wooden stands in a Hoover driveway for three years. The deck core was soft around every stanchion, and the fiberglass was starting to fail in patches. The owner had inherited it from a family member and had no idea what to do with a sailboat that wasn't seaworthy anymore. The trailer underneath had settled, and the boat sat low enough that moving it meant working around a carport corner and a tight passage toward the street. We arrived early on a Thursday and assessed the weight distribution. The keel would need to come out at the yard, and the mast was already down. Getting it off the stands and onto the trailer meant using a crane to lift it clear, rotating it slightly to angle through the carport, and then securing it for transport. The whole operation took most of a morning. Once we had it loaded and strapped, we hauled it back to Jefferson County where the keel was pulled and the hull was cut down for recycling. Crews cover all of Jefferson County: Birmingham, Vestavia Hills, Homewood, Bessemer, Trussville, Mountain Brook. We pick up same week in most cases. A lot of boat owners around Hoover move their rigs in and out of storage facilities when the season changes, and we handle those transitions. You call with the address and basics about your 26-footer, we quote you straight, and if you're ready, we schedule the haul. That's the job.
