Services
Wash, compound and polish, gelcoat restoration, marine ceramic, and metal. Teak maintenance. Interiors when the job needs them. Spring commissioning, mid-season maintenance, fall work on the hard — weather sets the calendar.
Wash and maintenance
Salt off gelcoat, topsides, and non-skid between larger jobs.
Hull and deck, hardware, and the places that chalk first. At the slip, on the hard, or at a yard.
How often depends on how the boat sits and how the summer is going.
Compound and polish
Cut haze and oxidation out of the gelcoat.
Compounding cuts the film a wash will not touch. Polishing follows.
How far to take it depends on the gelcoat, the age of the boat, and what you want to protect next.
Gelcoat restoration
When the chalk is past a wash.
Maine sun, salt, and winter layup leave oxidation in the gelcoat. Restoration is compounding and polishing taken as far as the surface will allow.
Some hulls come back in one pass. Others need a longer sequence. Photos tell which.
Ceramic coating
Marine ceramic on gelcoat that has already been corrected.
Hull, topsides, and the surfaces that see UV and salt. Applied after the surface is ready — not over oxidation.
Metal
Stainless and bronze.
Usually done with a wash, a polish, or a restoration.
Interiors
Cabin, isinglass, and interior surfaces as part of the same visit.
Quoted when they belong with commissioning, a sale, or a yard schedule. Ask if the job needs it.
