Boat WAshing & Exterior Cleaning
We offer both one-time detailed washes done as needed or recurring washes done every one, two, three or four weeks. Recurring washes are the best way to keep your boat clean year-round so it's ready for you anytime you want to enjoy it.
All washes include: Washing the boat from the waterline up using a soap that doesn't strip wax; washing away dirt and salt spray, bird or spider droppings and black water streaks; scrubbing non-skid and lifting up hatches and storage compartments to clean the gutter tracks and hatch edges and doing a wipe down in the cockpit or fly bridge area.
Recurring washes include a ceramic spray and sealant application several times throughout the year to add additional UV protection and improve the water beading and sheeting action on all surfaces.

Buffing, compounding & Polishing
Our buffing, compounding and polishing services will remove oxidation, bring back the gloss and further protect your gel coat making your boat easier to clean throughout the year.
We use a two-step process on all buff and wax jobs. This means we go over the boat first with compound and a buffer to remove oxidation and then go over it again with wax or polish. Our rates are based on the level of oxidation (light, medium or heavy).
Check out our infographic that helps explain levels of oxidation and our detailing process.
Unlike wax that starts to degrade after a few months, we use special, long-lasting polishes and hybrid polymer-based waxes that help protect your gel coat longer than any carnauba wax or pure wax can. This helps your boat stay cleaner longer, makes it easier to clean and resists oxidation for a longer period of time. Read our FAQ about our buffing and polishing services. Please note that we require a $250 deposit at the time we're ready to start the detailing job to help pay for upfront costs.

I just paid the invoice for this job and wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the work! The washing and detailing of the exterior was THE BEST job that has ever been done on the boat. We bought our boat new 25 years ago and have had regular, monthly, professional cleanings done ever since. But this one takes the cake. The teak toe rails, hand rails, and trim are spotless. And the dodger looks like new again. All the little nooks and crannies that accumulate crud that no one ever seems to notice are all clean now. Please thank your crew for such excellent care and attention to detail! --Mark D (34 Hallberg-Rassy)
