10 Reasons
Read our list of 10 reasons to use Deckhand Detailing to keep your boat clean and glossy year-round. And here's a bonus reason - we see our competitors use course brushes to wash boats with, only buff the areas they can easily reach or use a scrubby pad to remove oxidation, which can scratch the gel coat and leave splotchy results.
Read what some our wonderful customers have to say:
"Natalie - I should have gone with you for the boat detail. The "other guys" were such a headache and blatantly missed large areas of my boat and I had to have them come back repeatedly to detail the areas they missed." (Jon W, 35 Tiara)
"Anne and Angela (of past A&A detail) and Terry at Yachtfitters (rigger at our dock on Northlake) both said they saw customers' boats you did this year and you set a new mark!" (Mike M)
"Oh my gosh... This may sound nerdy but I LOVE your organization!!!!!! This is so much better than the last service we used.. Thanks a million!! We appreciate your hard work and the boats look great!" (Chelsea S with Seattle Yachts)
"I want to thank you for all your service and if I can refer you to anyone in our yacht club I will not hesitate. You were a breath of fresh air from what I had before!" (Jim D, 41 Meridian)
