Re: Scrap value of pontoons?
Thanks for the info. I can not get get a straight answer from the scrap dealers without disassembling the boat and taking the toons to them. They really aren't all that bad. Its that after several attempts at finding a skilled welder in my area, I give up. But I'm only 100 miles or so from Elkhart IN where they make these things. I put the boat on blocks this weekend and found the problem area which had been setting on the bunks for who knows how long. So, if I take them off the boat and take them somewhere where people have experience welding thin alum (like Elkhart) they would probably last another few decades. But, I should have mentioned that I parked this thing two years ago and bought a nice 20' cuddy my wife and I love, without all the headaches and throwing good money after bad. I was hoping to find someone who had scrapped their old toons that could tell me approximately what they are worth. They are 24' x 19 ". They are approximately .100 thick while the upper support brackets are .135. The cross members are a full .250 thick u channel. So I have a lot of weight. Its a shame to scrap them. more
Thanks. I was getting bad info on scrap prices so that is out. One toon doesn't leak at all. The other was half full of water last time out. I will check around for scratch and dent, but wifey would probably kick my *** if i spent another 2 or 3 K on this old boat. Craigslist is the best idea with a listing "guaranteed to sink if you can't get them fixed." "caveat emptor" Thanks again. Dan, Peru Indiana here
Re: Scrap value of pontoons? here
At least not before you part it out, if there is something catastrophically wrong with the hull.
You won’t need a title to the boat, because it is just being scrapped. [links]
I talk with a lot of boat owner’s and a lot of family members of boat owners. I think that because most people know how expensive it is to buy a boat. They get this misconception that the boat will always have some value. No matter what.
It really helps us out and we thank you so much for your support!
Beginning with this type of assessment is going to really put your situation in perspective so you will know where to begin in order to dispose of the boat properly. Possibly even getting some cash out of it and just getting rid of it!
If you can’t sell the boat, and there is nowhere that we can donate it to. We are narrowing down our options to get this boat gone! Depending on what kind of boat you have, it might be recyclable. more
Depending on where you live and the local waste companies that are in your area. You might be able to have someone come out and remove the boat. Sometimes you can find scrappers that will haul it off for you. here
All of these things are important to consider. Aluminum boats are easy to recycle, where fiberglass boats have to be sent to the dump.
Granted the little bit of money you get would be wisely placed in a retirement account. Generally, though we aren’t talking about a ton of money here. Selling a project boat generally doesn’t bring the big bucks!
