I've pulled boats out of Oakland backyards for years. Most of the calls come the same way: someone inherited the house with a junk boat still parked there, or an estate cleanout uncovered a vessel nobody wanted. Sometimes it's simpler than that. A guy listed his old boat one season, got no offers, and after two years of slip fees eating his budget he finally called. The motor seized up. The repair quote was more than the boat was worth. He'd had enough.
We handle the full tow from start to finish in Oakland, and jobs in Rochester often stack with an Oakland call the same afternoon. I send a crew out, we load the vessel, and it's gone. The paperwork follows. We handle title transfers, registration cancellations, the whole thing. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the Michigan page.
