I get calls from people who've already tried to sell. The mast came down one fall in the driveway and never went back up. The slip fees kept climbing while the boat sat in dry storage, and one day the owner did the math and realized the money going out would never stop. Sometimes it's an estate, and nobody in the family sails. Sometimes a sailboat came with the house or the lake property, and it's been buried behind the garage for a decade while the rigging corroded and the trailer tires went flat. A survey caught rot in the deck core, the buyer walked, and now there's an old sailboat nobody wants to finish.
We handle sailboat disposal start to finish in Des Moines and the surrounding King County area, including runs to Normandy Park and SeaTac on the same trip. We get the mast down, secure the rig, and tow what's left out. Title issues, missing paperwork, expired registration, a hull number that's hard to read,none of that stops the job. Full details on how we handle it are on the sailboat disposal page.
