Poway, CA: 20 ft Sylvan Mirage Gone in One Morning

A 20 ft Sylvan Mirage 20 pontoon was sitting in a Poway driveway, stained dark at the waterline and rotted through most of the furniture. The trailer was still serviceable, but the boat itself had been parked there long enough that the owner had stopped counting the years. That's the kind of job we get called for in San Diego County, and it's usually because someone's finally decided they're done looking at it. The real obstacle wasn't the boat's condition. It was the driveway layout. Narrow access, power lines overhead, and a slight grade that meant we couldn't just back a standard trailer in and out. We came in with a heavy-duty rotator, positioned the truck at an angle, and used a winch setup to ease the pontoon onto our trailer without scraping the fence or clipping the lines. The whole operation ran under two hours from first contact to the boat secured and loaded. Once we had it out of Poway, we brought the Sylvan back to our yard in San Diego County for processing. Title paperwork was handled the same way we do every boat in California. The pontoon got sorted for parts and recycling, and the trailer went to our auction block. The driveway was empty. That's how it ends. Crews cover all of San Diego County: San Diego, Chula Vista, Oceanside, Escondido, Carlsbad, El Cajon. We're in Poway regularly, pulling boats out of driveways and storage yards year-round. Most pickups happen same week. A lot of folks in Poway move boats into storage for the off-season or pull them out in spring, and that's when the calls come in. We load them, haul them out, and handle the whole thing without tying up your property.
