boat removal in the Bay Area
 

hi there,

I got an old boat in my slip and need to trash it. it is a coronado 27
build in 1972 and has not been sailed for a long time. engine and
outboard engine are probably not working anymore.

cannot donate since it is not worth anything.

didnt find a place that takes it yet (in the Bay Area)

Can anyone point me to a junk yard or who or whatever might take this
boat.

thanks,

larsinla

There is a certain Capt Neal who frequents alt.sailing.asa who might
be looking a newer Coronado. His is a 1971 model.

Classic junker.

It's going to cost you some money to get necessary land fill permits to
trash it.

The engine will be a problem.

Get it out of the boat before you try to take it to the land fill.

An ebay item, frankly described. I mean honestly and completely.
You will be shocked how much it makes. Specially if you can wait for
Spring.

Or not... We just picked up a fresh-water Newport 27 with Atomic 4
working fine and in all-round pretty good shape on ebay for US$2225.
There are some real bargains out there. OTOH, it looks like anything
that is floating will yield some kind of bid -- make the starting bid
a low one and don't specify a reserve.
