Not on the list? It is here to help you find your boat, not to limit what we take. We accept every make and model, listed or not, including rare builders and companies that closed decades ago. A donation depends on the boat's condition and paperwork, never the name on the hull, so enter yours on the form even if you do not see it here.
Questions
Can I donate the transmission without the engine?
Yes. Strap it to a pallet and send a photo of the data plate.
Do you need the ratio?
It helps. It is on the data plate, and a photo is enough.
Do you take V-drives?
Yes, case by case.
