Sailboat Removal in North Miami, Florida

Masts up to 50 feet require mast-stepping systems when they're accessible on your sailboat. If stepping isn't viable, we cut the mast into manageable sections and secure them alongside the hull for transport. Either approach keeps the boat and your property safe during removal.

Fin keels extend 4-8 feet below the hull offering stability but creating transport challenges. Wing keels spread load wider with less draft. Centerboards and daggerboards are retractable. Each type affects how we lift, support, and transport the sailboat. We assess keel type during initial inspection.

We remove rigging before transport. Standing rigging—shrouds, stays, turnbuckles, chainplates—and running rigging all come off carefully. Removing rigging prevents damage to the boat during hauling and protects your property from tangled lines.
