FAQ

Questions owners ask before a recovery call

Should I move a storm-damaged boat myself?

Only if it is safe and the boat is still fully controllable. Hidden hull, steering, fuel, and electrical damage can create risk.

Can you help after hurricanes?

Yes. Availability depends on weather, access, and safety conditions, but storm recovery is one of the core situations this site is built for.

What photos should I take after a storm?

Take wide shots of the location, hull, dock, lift, registration numbers, interior water level, engines, batteries, fuel sheen if visible, and any obstruction or property damage.

Need recovery now?

Send the boat location, photos, and what happened.

Texting photos of the hull, water level, dock, registration number, and surrounding access helps triage the right response faster.
