Scrap a Boat News
Some yachts when it is time to scrap seem to put up quite a fight. These are usually made from fibreglass and it can take our skilled team of Boat breakers all day to safely chop up the boat.
It's always a shame to see boats that are left abandoned and therefore destined for the chop. With most boats that we dispose of at Boatbreakers it's usually a case of they were used extensively once but over the last few years the costs and effort needed to keep these boats going has been too much for the owners.
There's never a dull day in Boat Breaking. We remove boats from all sorts of locations from driveways to riverbeds, so when we were asked to scrap a boat that is still in the water in Portsmouth Harbour we were happy to help.
Before and after shots of a recent job we did scrapping a Wooden Yacht.
Our first scrap boat of 2016 was a 23 foot wooden Yacht that hadn't seen the water for almost 20 years. In the early nineties the boat was housed in a cradle on the owner's driveway.
