Frequently Asked Questions

We handle routine system inspections, maintenance scheduling, vendor coordination, and crew management. You'll receive detailed monthly reports covering all completed work, upcoming maintenance needs, and expense tracking.

Monthly reports detail all completed maintenance, upcoming service needs, vendor invoices, and system status updates. We include photos of any issues found and recommendations for future work. You'll always know your yacht's condition and maintenance schedule.

We typically recommend full detailing every 3-4 months for boats regularly used in salt water. The combination of salt spray, UV exposure, and humidity accelerates wear on all surfaces. Boats kept in covered slips may stretch this to twice yearly, while those in open slips or used frequently benefit from quarterly service.

We can perform most detailing services while your boat remains in the slip, including deck cleaning, interior work, and above-waterline hull cleaning. For complete hull cleaning including the bottom, we'll need your boat hauled out. We coordinate with local boatyards to minimize your downtime and costs.

Complete detailing covers hull washing and polishing, deck cleaning and protection, interior cleaning of all surfaces including upholstery and carpeting, metal polishing, canvas cleaning, and engine compartment cleaning. We also clean and treat all vinyl, apply UV protectants, and detail the cockpit and helm areas.

Most gel coat oxidation and staining can be successfully removed through our multi-step process using marine-grade compounds and polishes. We assess each situation individually and will let you know upfront what level of restoration is realistic. Severe cases may require additional time but we've had excellent success restoring boats that owners thought were beyond help.

Absolutely—protection is a key part of our process. We apply marine-grade waxes and sealants to gel coat surfaces, UV protectants to all vinyl and canvas, and corrosion inhibitors to metal components. These treatments are specifically chosen for South Florida's harsh conditions and will extend the time between detailed cleanings.
