Derelict Boat Disposal in Hampshire Garden [Video]

In March, our Boatbreakers yard in Portsmouth had a rather large visitor to the yard. For anyone driving along the M275 into Portsmouth she was easy to spot, laid up on the Scrap Quay.

Boatbreakers cover the whole of the UK and Ireland. We've spent many years plucking boats out of tricky coastal locations across the British Isles. End of life boat disposal always throws up logistical challenges as the boats are usually damaged or wrecked.

The Boat breakers team were busy dealing with a local boat this week. We were asked to look at an Elizabethan 30 yacht that was on a swing mooring in Portsmouth Harbour.

It's always a shame to see nice boats coming in to the yard for disposal. The latest boat to come into the scrapyard was a Vindo 32. The Vindo yacht had been written off by the insurance company as the costs of repair outweighed the value of the boat.
