Whether you are the owner of a boat who would like it gone, or you observe a boat suspected of being abandoned or dilapidated, contact us and we can help. 

Under strict government oversite (Canadian Coast Guard and Transport Canada Authorization), we are permitted to safely accesses and remove these boats by contract and agreement.

All efforts are made to find the owners responsible prior the derelict boats being moved.

What to do if you find a wrecked boat???

At VAP Marine, we are highly experienced in the marine environment. We care about the marine environment and are involved with the responsible removal and recycling/disposing of these environmental hazards both on land and on the water.

Some of these wrecks have been littering the beaches for years and we have taken action.

Commercial grade drones assist our Level 1 Complex Certified crew in precision detection, tracking and reporting these wrecked boats and other navigational hazards to proper authorities.  We also assess, document and scale the project areas.

Our small, certified support vessel and support team is ready to get to work and clean the beaches!

In addition to dilapidated boats/wrecks, our team removes other environmental debris including foam and plastics, docks and so on.

Our goal is to restore the beach back to its 100% natural state while removing all environmental and navigational hazards.
