Dale's take on Georgetown

I get calls from two types of sailboat owners in Georgetown. First, there's the person who dropped the mast one fall and never stepped foot on deck again. The rigging sits, the boat sits, and five years pass. Second, slip fees in Williamson County keep climbing, storage lot rent eats into what little equity's left, and the old sailboat becomes a debt instead of a dream. Then there's the estate where nobody sails, or the trailer sailer that came with a house purchase and lives behind the garage, and the survey that failed so hard the whole sale collapsed.

Hansons Boat Removal handles sailboat disposal start to finish in Georgetown and surrounding towns like Serenada and Weir. We pull the rig, haul it, and move it out. Missing paperwork, no title in hand, no clear ownership history,none of that stops the job. Full details on how we handle it all are on the Texas sailboat disposal page.

What's covered

What sailboat disposal covers in Georgetown

Sailboat disposal in Georgetown means we handle the full breakdown on our yard. The mast comes down and standing rigging is cut away or salvaged. We pull the keel out, and its scrap value gets credited against your cost. Usable sails, winches, and hardware are spoken for before the fiberglass hull goes to the processor. Whether your vessel is sitting in a storage lot, on a driveway, or at a boatyard, we manage the haul-out and any marina conversation. The crew in Brushy Creek and Hutto runs the same process. The steps below show how scheduling works.

A job we ran in Georgetown

Crestliner 1650 removal Georgetown TX

Georgetown, TX: 16 ft Crestliner Gone in One Morning

A 16 ft Crestliner 1650 showed up in a Georgetown driveway on a bent-tongue trailer, the hull packed solid with leaves and the bench seats long gone. The owner had picked it up years back with plans to restore it, but the project never happened, and by the time he called us, the aluminum was oxidized and the trailer tongue had a kink that made it unsafe to tow. We backed in from the street with a hydraulic lift and jacked the frame level enough to get our own trailer underneath without stressing the weakened connection points.

How sailboat disposal in Georgetown 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 Georgetown. 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 Georgetown

    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 Texas sailboat disposal pricing section.

Common questions about Georgetown sailboat disposal

How much does it cost to get rid of a sailboat in Georgetown?
Depends on hull length, keel type, and where it sits. The pricing section above shows the range for Georgetown. Whatever the keel weighs in lead comes off the price up front.
Can you take a sailboat straight out of a marina slip?
Yes. We run the haul-out, coordinate the crane if the mast needs pulling first, and handle the marina office. You do not manage three vendors to lose one sailboat.
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?
If a charity can resell your boat, donation is the best deal going. Boats that sat neglected for years usually will not pass survey. Send photos and I will tell you which side of that line yours falls on.
What happens to the mast, rigging, and sails?
Mast comes down first, standing rigging is cut or salvaged, and the metal goes to recycling. Usable sails, winches, and cleats get pulled and credited back when they are worth pulling. Nothing marketable goes to the landfill.
Do I need a title to dispose of a sailboat in Georgetown?
Whatever the paperwork situation, the pickup still happens. The legal specifics for Texas 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?
Time on stands does not stop the pickup. Rot, missing bottom paint, stuck through-hulls — every one of those is normal for a boat like that. The quote factors it in.
