About this service
Regular detailing isn't just cosmetic — UV damage, oxidation, and salt crystallization can permanently damage gelcoat, vinyl, and stainless steel if not maintained. Most yacht owners schedule a full detail twice a year (spring commissioning and fall haul-out), with light wash-downs after each use.

Frequently asked
- How often should I wax my yacht?
- Twice a year minimum for boats kept in the water, more often in tropical climates. Modern ceramic coatings can extend intervals to 1–2 years. Wax protects gelcoat from UV oxidation, which once started can require buffing or re-gelcoating to fully reverse.
- Is yacht detailing worth it vs. DIY?
- For under 30-foot boats, DIY is often economical. For larger yachts (high freeboard, lots of teak, complex hardtops), pro detailers have ladders, polishers, and specialized products that produce noticeably better results in a fraction of the time.
