24/7 boat removal & marine recovery requests. Call 888-702-5785. Services are paid; crew deployment and arrival depend on conditions, site access and current resources.
Speak directly with the owner about your boat. We coordinate with remote owners and assess removal when a trailer is missing or unusable. Tell us whether you want recovery only or recovery with paid disposal.
We serve the entire state of Florida.
AAA Boat Salvage provides paid Pensacola boat removal, marine salvage, sunken boat recovery and junk boat disposal. For a vessel at a marina, identify its berth and facility contact; for a boat ashore, show the supports and entrance route.

Explore AAA’s recovery and removal work photos and video. For a similar request, share the boat’s current location, approximate length, condition and available access.
Pensacola Bay and Bayou Chico provide waterfront context for local requests. A marina name alone may lead to an office rather than the vessel. Supply the berth identifier and recent images of surrounding structures so the actual working area can be assessed.
If you are requesting recovery on behalf of an owner, identify who approves vessel work and who coordinates facility access. For a boat already recovered to land, show its present supports and explain which disposal tasks remain.
For a sunken or listing vessel, supply its exact berth or site and current condition. Provide depth only if known; do not guess at hidden damage.
Identify who can approve the vessel work and who can coordinate entry. These may be different people.
List the hull, trailer and associated vessel material to include, and specify items that should remain.
AAA Florida work-library photographs show visible vessel conditions. They are not identified as completed jobs in this page’s service area, and no location, date or outcome is inferred from the images.


Pensacola and surrounding waterfront and inland communities
Paid boat removal, marine salvage, boat recovery, sunken boat recovery and junk boat disposal are available for assessment. Tell us whether the vessel will be retained after recovery or removed for disposal; those are different end points.
Emergency boat removal and emergency marine salvage requests are accepted 24/7. Deployment depends on safe conditions, site access and available resources.
For emergency marine salvage in Escambia County, call with the vessel location, condition, and what has changed. Describe any obstruction or restricted access. We assess the request and discuss current crew and equipment availability; arrival time must be confirmed for the situation.
Call for Emergency Boat RemovalVessel size, water position or supports, access restrictions and the agreed outcome affect the Escambia County estimate. Confirm recovery and disposal separately if both are requested.
Removal, recovery and disposal are paid services. Ask what is included, what is excluded, and which changes would require a revised estimate before work begins.
The saved FWC record identifies Bayview Park Boat Ramp on Pensacola Bay - Bayou Texar in Escambia County. That identifies a public access reference, not a reserved working route. Send the actual vessel position and confirm current operator permission before relying on this location.
Use the vessel’s actual position, the allowed approach and equipment needs. The directory records Bayview Park Boat Ramp on Pensacola Bay - Bayou Texar and Bayou Texar Public Boat Ramp on Pensacola Bay - Bayou Texar. Straight-line proximity to a place reference point does not establish the suitable recovery route.
Provide the vessel pin and authorized entrance, then describe whether it is afloat, submerged or ashore. The listed location for Bayview Park Boat Ramp is 2001 East Lloyd Street, PENSACOLA, 32503; do not substitute that ramp address for a boat elsewhere.
These answers use the saved ramp records linked below. They do not confirm present opening status, commercial-use permission or a completed AAA job at those sites.

Kenneth was prompt, fast, efficient and personable throughout the whole process of deciding on a salvager to getting our boat safely hauled away. Hi It was obvious he's been doing this a while. Helper Don was friendly and funny throughout. Thanks guys for making a difficult task seem easy. DavidPosted on Google![]()

I had the unfortunate pleasure of dealing with the owner Kenneth today. Unfortunate because my in laws got stranded but a pleasure because Kenneth was absolutely amazing. My in laws were 3 hrs from home when they got stranded on the river and the loving children we are were scrambling first thing Saturday morning to find them help. Kenneth was quick and on top of getting their location to get them help. Being that they've been stuck there since last night Mr Kenneth was also quick to ask if they had food and water and needed any supplies. When things where then sorted out and a different company was on the way Mr Kenneth understood and was still very worried about my inlaws getting proper supplies and help. Though we didn't get to use his service I 10/10 recommend due to customer service.Posted on Google![]()

Lesson number 1: Don’t ever put anything in your name for a family member. For 3.5yrs I have stared at an old boat in the yard that said family member finally gave away for free. Sounds great, right? Not when you are sitting at work and see on your cameras that said boat has suddenly reappeared in your front yard. Family member back in their home state, boat now in my front yard…panic attack. Several in fact. The boat was no longer in any kind of donation condition and this isn’t as easy to get rid of as a car or motorcycle which have junk yards. After panic searching and secretly crying in the bathroom at work (several times), I came across AAA Boat Salvage. I reached out for a quote and Kenneth got back to me super fast. He searched my address and let me know he could remove it the next day. He told me what to expect, they sent over paperwork for me to sign, and we confirmed an ETA for the next day. Kenneth kept me posted as he was coming from 2hrs away and I was able to coordinate with work to be home to meet him. He quickly connected the boat, was very professional and while he was prepping for safe transport he had me connect with the office for payment of removal services and my final copies of the necessary documents releasing me from ownership and liability of the boat. I feel much better knowing they will properly strip down the boat and dispose of it correctly and in accordance with environmental laws. It is painful to have to pay to dispose of a old vessel that was never meant to be my problem, but giving away something for free doesn’t mean someone will responsibly remove you from ownership and liability (or won’t dump it back in your yard at a future date like me). The nightmares of this eyesore are over, and Kenneth and the office team kept me sane and made this so easy for me .I am more than happy to recommend them!Posted on Google![]()

Local waterfront context includes Pensacola Bay and Bayou Chico. Identify the specific dock, marina berth or property where the boat rests. A waterway name does not establish access or permission to carry out recovery.
For a boat ashore, send current images of the supports and approach. For a submerged vessel, describe its position and depth if known. Explain who can approve the work and whether you want to retain the boat or include paid disposal.
For a vessel outside Escambia County, use the guide for its actual location.
Call 888-702-5785 for 24/7 availability for storm-damaged, displaced or submerged boats. Tell us the current vessel location and condition, the site contact and whether you need recovery, paid disposal or both. If an insurer is involved, identify its requested records; coverage and payment remain subject to the insurer’s decision.
Weather, official access restrictions and available crews affect when field work can proceed. Do not enter an unsafe site to obtain photographs. For immediate danger to people, contact emergency services.
