Common Boat Removal Scenarios
Owners along the Kaskaskia River often contact us after a vessel takes on water and becomes partially submerged along a low bank. Boats stored seasonally at Vandalia Lake or trailered to Lake Sara sometimes sit forgotten for years, making removal complicated by overgrown access paths and deteriorating hulls that require careful extraction before transport.
Recreational boats left at Raccoon Lake after a title change or lender repossession are another frequent call we receive in Fayette County.
