Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal
The reality is that boat removal is often much tougher than it seems for Santa Cruz area residents, particularly around sensitive water bodies like Neary Lagoon. Some older vessels often contain asbestos insulation. Our Teams take off the masts, clear out the boat’s gear and electronics and cut off the flybridge if needed. Larger boats usually need to be crushed or demolished before a landfill will take them - and our team takes care of that process. You just sit back - AAA Rousse takes care of the rest.
Common Boat Removal Scenarios
Boat removals in Santa Cruz most often begin at the Santa Cruz Harbor launch ramps, where owners haul out trailerable vessels after a season on Monterey Bay. Larger boats stored on the water along Eaton Street face more complex lifts requiring a crane or travel lift service. The Pelton Avenue corridor also sees regular flatbed pickups hauling vessels to inland storage.
Owners keeping boats near the Depot Hill bluffs or along East Cliff Drive sometimes need removal after storm damage pushes a vessel onto the rocks. In these situations a salvage crew works from Twin Lakes State Beach area to access the shoreline. Boats trailered off the water frequently head to covered facilities along Soquel Avenue for long term dry storage.
