& Boatyards

Florida's marine trade runs on corrosion-resistant metal, which means 316 stainless and bronze — both worth considerably more than the mixed-metal price most people assume. Clearwater, St. Petersburg and the Pinellas coast produce this constantly.

Do not scrap bronze props and through-hulls as mixed metal. Bronze is a copper alloy and prices much closer to brass than to steel — we see people give away real money on this every year.

A single repower or refit can produce hundreds of pounds of bronze and 316 stainless. We can tell you what your specific volume is realistically worth once we know what you are generating.

We weigh in front of you and pay on the spot, cash or check. For scheduled pickups we weigh at collection and settle the same visit — no invoicing, no waiting period.
