Hull Cleaning/Stain Removal as needed
Got those ugly water stains under your drain ports? Left your ski boat in the water all season? We can remove those ugly water stains, scum lines, and algea growth from under your boat. Our process involves the use of an acid based hull cleaner along with scrapers and soft nylon brushes. After all scum and stains removed, we will apply a coat of wax to affected areas.
Scuba Cleaning recommended once per year
Losing horsepower? Losing speed? Can't get up on plane? These could be signs of too much weight stuck to the bottom of your boat. A good bottom cleaning will give you noticeable improvements in performance and gas mileage.
The process for scuba cleaning involves a first pass with a plastic scraper to remove heavy debris and then a second pass with a nylon brush to get the finer debris. All components cleaned below the waterline including the following:
- hull
- lower units and props
- transom tabs
- etc

Isinglass Cleaning/Restoration cleaning once per yr / restoration as needed
Isinglass is the clear vinyl zippered windows found around the cockpit or flybridge area on many boats. This material, while flexible and easily removable, is very prone to scratching and discoloration.
The restoration process may be as simple as a spray on cleaner or may involve buffing and polishing with a machine buffer. Before you pay the big dollars for replacement, let me quote you on restoring your existing windows.
Teak Cleaning/Restoration as needed
Teak (also known as brightwork) is wooden trim and floor found on many boats. New teak looks awesome and is very appealing on a boat. Unfortunately, teak also requires periodic maintenance to maintain that "like new" look. If neglected, teak may need to be restored to its original condition with sanding, cleaning, brightening, and oiling. Let us quote your next teak project.
Engine/Bilge Cleaning recommended once per year
Are you starting to notice that funky smell coming into your boat? Engine and bilge cleaning is an often overlooked and dreaded cleaning task. We can clean your engine room and bilge area of nasty stains, oily residue and water, engine leaks spots, and other dirt and debris. Our process uses vacuums, bilge cleaners, engine degreasers, scrub brushes and lots of old rags. We are environmentally conscious and will dispose of any contaminated water or sludge in the appropriate manner.
