Dale's take on Jackson

I get calls from people in Jackson who bought a sailboat years ago and haven't touched it since. One guy had a 26-foot Catalina sitting in dry storage behind his house in Hinds County. The mast came down one fall when he was thinking about selling, and it never went back up. Slip fees kept climbing, the rig needed work he wasn't going to do, and the listing died after a couple of lowball offers. Another was an estate sale situation. The house came with a sailboat that nobody in the family sailed. It was taking up space at a local storage lot, costing money every month, and the paperwork was scattered across three drawers.

Hansons Boat Removal handles sailboat disposal in Jackson start to finish. We work Clinton and Byram the same way we work Jackson, so a single trip can cover multiple boats if you're coordinating with someone nearby. We come out, assess the rig and the hull, handle the tow, and manage everything else. Missing paperwork, no title, unclear registration,none of that stops the job. All the details on how we handle the old sailboat, the survey issues, and what happens next are on the sailboat disposal page.

What's covered

What sailboat disposal covers in Jackson

Sailboat disposal in Jackson means we handle the full teardown and responsible recycling of your vessel. The mast comes down and standing rigging is cut away or salvaged. At our yard, the keel comes out and any scrap value gets credited toward your cost. We identify usable sails, winches, and hardware before the fiberglass hull is cut and routed to the processor. For boats in the water at a marina or boatyard, we run the haul-out and manage the yard conversation so you don't have to. We also handle pickups from storage lots and driveways across the Jackson area, including Raymond and Terry. The process steps below show how scheduling works.

A job we ran in Jackson

Ericson 27 removal Jackson MS

27 ft Ericson Removal in Jackson, MS

A 27 ft Ericson 27 sailboat landed in a driveway in Jackson on steel stands after an owner stripped the interior and left the portlights crazed and failing. The boat had been parked there long enough that the neighbors in Byram and the surrounding Hinds County area had stopped asking questions about it. The trailer underneath had settled, and getting a wrecker close enough to lift without sinking into the yard meant we had to stage the truck from the street and run winch cable through the fence line.

How sailboat disposal in Jackson works

  1. 1

    Send photos, rig status, and the pickup ZIP

    Length, keel type, whether the mast is up or already down, and access notes for the yard or slip in Jackson. Photos of the rig and any winches or hardware set the number.

  2. 2

    Get a firm quote back the same day

    One number covers rig-down through disposal. Keel scrap value is credited off the total up front, not owed back after.

  3. 3

    Schedule pickup and marina coordination in Jackson

    If the boat is in a slip we run the marina office and the crane call. On stands or on a trailer we set a date and window; the crew calls when they are an hour out.

  4. 4

    Rig-down and load

    Mast unstepped, standing rigging cut or salvaged, spreaders and boom stacked and strapped. Usable sails, winches, and hardware come off before the hull leaves.

  5. 5

    Keel out, hull processed, documentation

    The keel is unbolted or cut at our yard, weighed, and sold to the metal recycler; the fiberglass hull is cut down and routed to a processor. You get proof of disposal and the hull ID record.

    Metal keel, rigging, winches, and salvageable hardware are routed to recyclers first. Only what a facility refuses ends up in a landfill.

The starting number at the top of this page is real. Length, keel type, and whether the boat sits in the water or on the hard move it from there. Lead keel scrap value is credited off — details on the Mississippi sailboat disposal pricing section.

Common questions about Jackson sailboat disposal

How much does it cost to get rid of a sailboat in Jackson?
Cost tracks length, keel type, and whether the boat sits in the water or on the hard. The pricing section above shows the range. Lead keel scrap value gets credited off the number, and a firm quote comes back from photos.
Can you take a sailboat straight out of a marina slip?
Yes — slip pickups are routine. We call the marina, book the crane, and pull the mast on the ramp if that is where it makes sense. One point of contact all the way through.
Is the lead keel worth anything?
A lead keel is often the most valuable single piece of an older sailboat. Weight times the scrap rate credits back against the quote. Iron keels do the same at a lower rate.
Should I just donate the sailboat instead?
Donation makes sense for a boat with survey value — a runnable diesel, sound decks, a rig that will not fail on inspection. Send photos and I will tell you which way yours leans; if the numbers work for a charity, I will say so first.
What happens to the mast, rigging, and sails?
We unstep the mast, coil or salvage the standing rigging, and pull winches, cleats, and any usable sails before the hull leaves. Metals get recycled and sails get sold or donated when they are still good.
Do I need a title to dispose of a sailboat in Jackson?
Whatever the paperwork situation, the pickup still happens. The legal specifics for Mississippi sit on the boat-removal page. You get proof of disposal at the end.
What if the boat has been sitting on stands for years?
Years on stands is our most common call. Seized hardware, stained hulls, corroded rigging — none of that changes whether we take the job. The quote already assumes the boat has been sitting.
