Westerly Nomad Collected for Disposal One of our latest jobs was to collect a Westerly Nomad from the Grand Union Canal. The yacht is not the sort of boat you would expect to find on the inland waterways. However there was no mast or rigging and she'd been converted [...]

The Boatbreakers team had shut up shop for the day last Friday when we received a call for help. A small tender had broken free from the yacht which had been towing her.

Our most recent boat in for disposal was a storm damaged Wellcraft 192 from Poole. The Wellcraft  speedboat was caught in stormy conditions and it seems to have flooded before sinking on her mooring.

Another day and another yacht through the Boat Scrapyard. However this tired looking yellow fin keeled yacht on a trailer had an interesting life.

The Boatbreakers team have had an extremely busy spring so far. This week we even had three yacht collections in a single day.

Whenever the Boatbreakers team deal with an old wooden boat the chances are it will have significant history behind it. We always notice that emotions run highly with wooden boats and so they should.

Our latest arrival at the Boatbreakers Boat Scrapyard was an Elizabethan 29 yacht. It was actually a boat that was supposed to come to us in March 2020 but Covid changed that plan.
