Fifteen years back, the owner drove this 27 foot express cruiser home with big plans for the lake, but that turned out to be the last time it ever saw water. It sat in a back corner of his yard in Logan, Utah, sinking into the ground on wooden jack stands while the seasons passed. He finally called us this February because he wanted his yard back before spring.
An engine that had not turned over in a decade sat inside, and the old fuel line had cracked wide open. Hazardous fluids had to be checked and drained before dismantling anything, as oil in an old block will ruin your day if it spills. The owner had his paperwork sorted in a garage shoebox, and he signed the release of liability when we checked the papers. Getting the derelict vessel out meant navigating a low power line across the driveway. The boat had no trailer, so our crew set up our own heavy gear, rolled the vessel upright, blocked the fiberglass hull, and slid our trailer underneath without catching those overhead wires.
We hauled the vessel out for proper disposal. Usable metal parts were recycled and salvaged, and the remaining hull went to a licensed facility that takes old boats. The yard corner was left flat and clean. If you need boat removal in Logan or anywhere in Cache County, call us at 866-994-1769.
What a trailer says about the boat on it
Typically, we see hulls where cool, clear winter days make for easy work, though years of summer heat already did the real damage to the fiberglass. After a decade in the sun, resin gets brittle, and heavy crossbeams split when you lift them. We clear paperwork first so property owners have no open liens or town fines following the hull after our crew hauls it off the property.

Questions about boat disposal in Logan, UT
Do you handle hurricane-damaged boats?
Yes, our boat removal process covers storm damage, sunken hulls, and vessels wrecked on a dock or waterfront. We bring licensed and insured crews to secure broken pieces, drain trapped water, and pull the boat out safely.
Can you take a boat to a junkyard or salvage yard?
We take non-running vessels directly to approved processing facilities for recycling and disposal. If you want a specific marina or salvage yard to take it, we can haul it there once the site agrees to accept the vessel.
Our boat removal service areas in Cache County
We pick up boats across Cache County, in Lewiston, Trenton, Wellsville and North Logan. Winter weather freezes standing water inside an open pontoon or sailboat hull, adding hundreds of pounds of hidden ice weight that our boat removal crew accounts for before winching the vessel up.
