Boat Butcher: California’s Boat Removal & Marine Salvage Company
From San Diego to San Francisco and from Los Angeles to Sacramento, Boat Butcher is building a recognizable name around one simple promise:
When you need a boat gone, call Boat Butcher
We are not in the business of trying to convince you to repair a vessel that has reached the end of its useful life. Boat Butcher focuses on removing unwanted boats, dismantling vessels when necessary, hauling them away, and helping property owners, marina operators, boat owners, and commercial customers reclaim their space.
Boat Butcher Is Built for Boats That Need to Go
Every boat removal project has its own challenges.
A 20-foot fiberglass fishing boat sitting on a trailer is one thing. A 50-foot abandoned sailboat occupying a marina slip is something completely different.
A damaged yacht, derelict commercial vessel, partially submerged boat, neglected houseboat, stripped fishing boat, old pontoon, or deteriorating cabin cruiser may require specialized planning before it can be removed.
That is where Boat Butcher comes in.
Boat Butcher evaluates the vessel, location, accessibility, size, condition, and removal requirements to determine how the project can be approached.
We can handle situations involving:
- Abandoned boats
- Derelict vessels
- Junk boats
- Damaged boats
- Storm-damaged vessels
- Fire-damaged boats
- Old sailboats
- Fishing boats
- Yachts
- Cabin cruisers
- Houseboats
- Pontoon boats
- Commercial vessels
- Workboats
- Fiberglass boats
- Wooden boats
- Aluminum boats
- Steel vessels
- Boats on trailers
- Boats in storage yards
- Boats occupying marina slips
- Boats on private property
- Boats requiring dismantling
If it is an unwanted boat taking up valuable space, Boat Butcher wants to hear about it.

Boat Butcher at California Marinas & Harbors
Boat Butcher understands that unwanted vessels can create major problems for marina operators.
A boat sitting in a slip that is no longer wanted can prevent that space from being used. A deteriorating vessel in a boatyard can consume valuable storage capacity. A derelict vessel can become an eyesore and create additional work for property managers and marina personnel.
Boat Butcher can evaluate removal projects involving vessels located at or near California’s many marinas, harbors, yacht clubs, and waterfront facilities.
California locations associated with major boating activity include:
- Marina del Rey
- Los Angeles Harbor
- Port of Los Angeles
- Long Beach Harbor
- Alamitos Bay
- Rainbow Harbor
- Newport Harbor
- Dana Point Harbor
- Oceanside Harbor
- San Diego Harbor
- Shelter Island
- Harbor Island
- Mission Bay
- Ventura Harbor
- Channel Islands Harbor
- Santa Barbara Harbor
- Morro Bay Harbor
- Monterey Harbor
- Moss Landing Harbor
- Santa Cruz Harbor
- Pillar Point Harbor
- Half Moon Bay
- Sausalito
- Richmond
- Berkeley Marina
- Emeryville Marina
- Oakland waterfront

- Benicia Marina
- Vallejo waterfront
- Napa waterfront
- Stockton waterfront
- Sacramento-area marinas
- Delta marinas and boatyards
If an unwanted boat is sitting in one of these areas—or somewhere nearby—contact Boat Butcher to discuss the removal.
Boat Butcher & Southern California Waterways
Southern California has some of the country’s most recognizable boating destinations.
Boat Butcher can serve customers around major waterfront areas including San Diego Bay, Mission Bay, Newport Harbor, Alamitos Bay, Long Beach Harbor, Los Angeles Harbor, Marina del Rey, Santa Monica Bay, Channel Islands Harbor, Ventura Harbor, and Santa Barbara Harbor.
These waterways support recreational boats, fishing vessels, sailboats, yachts, commercial vessels, and other marine equipment.
Eventually, some of those boats become unwanted.
When that happens, Boat Butcher provides an option for owners and property managers looking to clear the vessel.
Boat Butcher & San Francisco Bay
San Francisco Bay presents a completely different marine environment.
The Bay connects numerous cities and waterfront communities, including San Francisco, Oakland, Alameda, Richmond, Berkeley, Sausalito, San Rafael, Vallejo, Benicia, and other communities throughout the region.
Boat Butcher can evaluate unwanted vessels throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, including boats located at private docks, marinas, boatyards, waterfront properties, and other accessible locations.
Whether it is an old sailboat in Alameda, a neglected vessel around Richmond, an unwanted yacht near Sausalito, or a boat occupying valuable space elsewhere around the Bay, Boat Butcher is ready to evaluate the removal requirements.
Boat Butcher & the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta
California’s boating world does not stop at the ocean.
The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta is one of California’s most extensive inland boating regions, with waterways and communities extending through areas including Sacramento, Stockton, Antioch, Discovery Bay, Bethel Island, Rio Vista, and surrounding communities.
Old boats, abandoned vessels, damaged watercraft, and unwanted recreational boats can become significant problems in Delta communities.
Boat Butcher can evaluate boat removal and salvage projects throughout the Delta and surrounding inland waterways.
If a boat has been sitting on your property, behind your business, at a dock, or in a marina and you no longer want it, Boat Butcher can help determine the next step.
Boat Butcher & Northern California
Northern California has its own extensive marine network.
From Humboldt Bay to the Sacramento River, San Francisco Bay, the Delta, and the Pacific coastline, Boat Butcher can evaluate unwanted vessel removal projects across a wide geographic area.
Communities such as Eureka, Arcata, Crescent City, Vallejo, Benicia, Fairfield, Napa, Sacramento, Stockton, and surrounding areas are all part of California’s broader boating landscape.
Boat Butcher’s objective is to make the removal process easier for customers who have a boat they simply do not want anymore.
Boat Butcher Handles More Than Boat Hauling
Boat removal is not always as simple as hooking up a trailer.
Large vessels may need to be dismantled before they can be transported. Boats located in restricted areas may require additional planning. Damaged vessels may need to be prepared before hauling.
Boat Butcher approaches these projects as marine salvage and dismantling jobs, not simply conventional towing.
Depending on the vessel, removal may involve dealing with:
- Engines
- Generators
- Outdrives
- Fuel systems
- Batteries
- Wiring
- Aluminum
- Steel
- Marine machinery
- Trailers
- Interior components
- Fiberglass
- Wood
- Decking
- Hardware
- Other vessel materials
The goal is to make the boat disappear from the location where it has become a problem.
Boat Butcher cuts it down, hauls it away, and helps you reclaim your space.
Why the Name Boat Butcher?
The name says exactly what the company is about.
Boat Butcher is not trying to dress up an unwanted vessel or convince customers to pour more money into an old boat.
We specialize in the other end of the boat’s life.
When the vessel has reached the point where the owner says, “I just want this thing gone,” Boat Butcher is the company to roll with.
The Boat Butcher brand represents boat removal, dismantling, salvage, hauling, and disposal.
It is memorable because the job is memorable.
Boat Butcher removes boats that other people don’t want to deal with.
