It’s hard to get South Florida marine contractors show up for a job, let alone do a great job. As a captain for over 25 years in Ft Lauderdale, I don’t make many recommendations, but Yacht Pro is one. They did a ceramic coating on my bosses 66’ Azimut & a compound/wax on his 50’ Sea Ray. Both jobs were outstanding. They show up, do great work & are well priced.

A full boat detailing service typically includes a comprehensive cleaning and restoration of both the interior and exterior of the boat. Here are the key components that are commonly included in a full boat detailing service:
-
Exterior Cleaning:

- Cleaning and polishing metal fixtures such as railings, cleats, and hardware.
- Scrubbing and brightening teak decking to restore its natural beauty.
- Cleaning and polishing glass surfaces, including windows and hatches.
-
Compounding and Waxing:
- Compounding to remove oxidation, scratches, and swirl marks from the gelcoat or paint surface.
- Applying a protective wax or sealant to enhance shine and provide long-term protection against UV rays and environmental damage.
- Polishing to achieve a smooth and glossy finish.
-
Interior Cleaning:
- Thorough cleaning of all interior surfaces, including cabins, salons, galleys, and heads.

Additionally, some boat detailing services may offer specialized treatments such as ceramic coating applications for enhanced protection and longevity, oxidation removal for older boats, and teak deck restoration services.
It’s important to note that the specific inclusions may vary depending on the service provider and the size/type of the boat. It’s always recommended to discuss the details of the service package with the detailing company to ensure that it meets your boat’s needs.
Yes, boat detailing services are generally considered worth the investment for several reasons:
-
Preservation of Value: Regular detailing helps maintain the condition and appearance of your boat, preserving its value over time. A well-maintained boat is more attractive to potential buyers if you decide to sell in the future.
-
Enhanced Aesthetics: Detailing restores the shine and gloss of your boat’s exterior, making it look new and appealing. It also keeps the interior clean, fresh, and inviting for you and your guests.
-
Protection from Damage: Detailing services often include protective treatments such as waxing, ceramic coating, and UV inhibitors. These treatments shield your boat from sun damage, oxidation, saltwater corrosion, and other environmental hazards.
-
Improved Performance: A clean hull and properly maintained components can contribute to better fuel efficiency and overall performance of your boat.
-
Longevity: Regular maintenance through detailing helps extend the lifespan of your boat’s surfaces, upholstery, and mechanical components, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements.
-
Peace of Mind: Knowing that your boat is in top condition and well-protected allows you to enjoy your time on the water with confidence and peace of mind.
Ultimately, the value of boat detailing services depends on factors such as the age and condition of your boat, your usage patterns, and your personal preferences. However, many boat owners find that investing in professional detailing not only enhances the appearance and functionality of their boats but also contributes to their overall enjoyment and satisfaction as boaters.
The time it takes to detail a boat can vary widely depending on several factors:
-
Size of the Boat: Larger boats generally require more time to detail than smaller ones. A small boat like a dinghy or a personal watercraft may take a few hours, while a large yacht could take several days.
-
Level of Detailing: The extent of detailing needed also influences the time required. A basic exterior wash and wax will take less time compared to a full detailing service that includes compounding, polishing, waxing, interior cleaning, and additional treatments.
-
Condition of the Boat: The condition of the boat plays a significant role. A well-maintained boat that only needs a touch-up or light cleaning will take less time compared to a boat with heavy oxidation, deep stains, or extensive cleaning requirements.
-
Number of Crew and Equipment: The number of detailing professionals working on the boat and the availability of specialized equipment can impact the time required. A larger crew with efficient equipment may complete the job faster.
-
Additional Services: If the detailing service includes additional tasks such as engine compartment cleaning, teak deck restoration, or metal polishing, the overall time will be longer.
As a general guideline:
- A basic exterior wash and wax for a small boat might take 2-4 hours.
- A thorough exterior and interior detailing for a mid-size boat could take 1-2 days.
- Comprehensive detailing for a large yacht may take 3-5 days or more, depending on the size and specific requirements.
It’s important to discuss the estimated time frame with the detailing service provider before scheduling the service, especially if you have time constraints or specific deadlines. They can provide a more accurate estimate based on the condition and size of your boat and the services you require.
The cost of boat cleaning can vary widely based on several factors, including the size of the boat, the type of cleaning service required, the condition of the boat, and the service provider’s rates. Here are some general price ranges for boat cleaning services:
-
Basic Exterior Wash: This includes washing the hull, deck, and topsides of the boat to remove dirt, salt, and grime.
-
Exterior Detailing: A more thorough cleaning that may include compounding, waxing, and polishing.
-
Interior Cleaning: Cleaning the interior of the boat, including cabins, cockpit, galley, and head areas. Prices vary widely based on the size and condition of the interior.
-
Full Detailing: This comprehensive service includes both exterior and interior cleaning, detailing, and restoration. Prices varies depending on the size and condition of the boat.
-
Additional Services: Services such as teak cleaning, metal polishing, engine cleaning, and canvas cleaning may incur additional charges depending on the complexity and size of the task.
It’s important to note that these are general price ranges, and actual costs may vary based on the specific requirements of your boat and the rates of the service provider. Additionally, some companies offer package deals or discounts for regular maintenance services or bundled services.
It’s recommended to contact several boat cleaning companies, discuss your needs, and request quotes to compare prices and services before making a decision. This way, you can ensure that you get the best value for your investment in boat cleaning services.
The frequency of boat detailing depends on several factors, including how often the boat is used, its storage conditions, and the owner’s preferences. Here are some general guidelines for boat detailing frequency:
-
Regular Use: If you use your boat frequently, especially in saltwater or harsh environmental conditions, it’s advisable to detail it at least once a year or every six months. Regular detailing helps protect the boat’s surfaces from corrosion, UV damage, and wear and tear.
-
Seasonal Use: For boats that are used seasonally, such as during the summer months, detailing before and after the boating season is recommended. This helps prepare the boat for storage and ensures it remains in good condition during periods of inactivity.
-
Storage Conditions: Boats stored outdoors or in uncovered marinas may require more frequent detailing due to exposure to the elements, including sun, rain, and saltwater. Indoor or covered storage can help protect the boat and reduce the frequency of detailing.
-
Type of Detailing: The type of detailing service also influences the frequency. Basic exterior washes may be needed more frequently, while full detailing services (including compounding, waxing, and interior cleaning) can be done less often, such as once or twice a year.
-
Boat Condition: The condition of the boat also plays a role. Older boats or boats with existing oxidation, stains, or wear may benefit from more frequent detailing to restore and maintain their appearance.
Ultimately, the best approach is to assess your boat’s condition, usage patterns, and storage environment, and then determine a detailing schedule that suits your needs. Regular maintenance and cleaning between detailing sessions, such as rinsing after each use and using protective covers, can also help prolong the intervals between full detailing services.
The frequency of hull cleaning for a boat depends on several factors, including the type of hull material, where the boat is used, and the level of fouling or growth accumulation. Here are some general guidelines for how often a boat’s hull should be cleaned:
-
Boat Usage: If your boat is used frequently, especially in saltwater or areas prone to marine growth, the hull may need cleaning more often. For boats used infrequently or in freshwater, less frequent cleaning may be sufficient.
-
Hull Material: Different hull materials may require different cleaning frequencies. For example, boats with fiberglass or painted hulls may need cleaning less often than boats with gelcoat or non-antifouling hulls that are more prone to marine growth.
-
Location: Boats moored or docked in marinas with high levels of marine growth or in warm, nutrient-rich waters may require more frequent hull cleaning. Boats in cleaner or colder waters may need less frequent cleaning.
-
Antifouling Paint: If your boat has antifouling paint applied to the hull, it can help reduce marine growth and extend the time between cleanings. However, antifouling paint effectiveness can diminish over time and may require reapplication.
-
Visual Inspection: Regularly inspecting the hull for signs of fouling, such as barnacles, algae, or slime, can help determine when cleaning is necessary. If you notice significant growth or a decrease in performance, it’s time to clean the hull.
As a general recommendation, boats in saltwater or warm climates may benefit from hull cleaning every 1-3 months to prevent excessive fouling and maintain optimal performance. In freshwater or colder climates with less marine growth, hull cleaning every 3-6 months may be sufficient.
It’s important to follow manufacturer recommendations for hull cleaning products and techniques to avoid damaging the hull or antifouling coatings. Additionally, regular maintenance such as rinsing the hull after each use and using antifouling paints or coatings can help reduce the frequency of hull cleaning.
Yes, waxing the hull of a boat can provide several benefits and is generally recommended as part of regular boat maintenance. Here are some ways in which waxing the hull can help:
-
Protection from UV Rays: Boat hulls are exposed to sunlight, which can cause fading, oxidation, and damage to the gelcoat or paint. Waxing creates a protective barrier that helps shield the hull from UV rays, reducing the risk of sun damage and preserving the hull’s color and finish.
-
Prevention of Oxidation: Over time, exposure to the elements can lead to oxidation, which manifests as a chalky or dull appearance on the hull. Waxing regularly can prevent oxidation by sealing the surface and preventing moisture and contaminants from penetrating the gelcoat or paint.
-
Enhanced Shine: Waxing creates a smooth and glossy finish on the hull, enhancing its appearance and giving it a showroom-like shine. This not only makes the boat look more attractive but also improves its resale value.
-
Ease of Cleaning: A waxed hull is easier to clean and maintain. The smooth surface repels dirt, grime, and saltwater, making it easier to rinse off and reducing the need for aggressive scrubbing or cleaning solutions that can damage the hull.
-
Longevity of Antifouling Coatings: For boats with antifouling coatings, waxing can help prolong the effectiveness of these coatings by providing an additional layer of protection and reducing friction, which can help prevent marine growth and fouling.
-
Water Beading: Waxed surfaces exhibit water beading, where water droplets form into beads and roll off the hull more easily. This not only contributes to the boat’s appearance but also helps maintain hydrodynamic performance by reducing drag.
It’s important to note that the effectiveness of waxing depends on the quality of the wax used, the application technique, and the frequency of waxing. High-quality marine waxes specifically formulated for boats are recommended for best results. Additionally, waxing should be part of a regular boat maintenance routine that includes cleaning, polishing, and protective treatments to keep the hull in optimal condition.
