The health of your boat lies in the details

Cleaning can be a dirty job. Walk in when we’re in the middle of one of our boat detailing projects, and it might not look pretty as we go through every inch of your boat looking for dirt and problems. But come back when we’re done, and you’ll see a boat that looks like it just came out of the factory.
Boats are no different than your car. They need to be cleaned and maintained on a regular basis, or little problems can soon become big problems. That’s why we at Oyster Harbors Marine take pride in our boat detailing services. Our detailing is good for the health of your boat . . . not to mention making it look downright beautiful.
A boat’s gel coat is porous. If it isn’t cleaned, waxed and polished on a regular basis, it will fade and dull out. Aluminum requires cleaning and waxing, or the anodized finish gets dull and spotty. Wood needs to be treated. Over time, dirt and grime builds up in the nooks and crannies of your deck and cabin. Even windows need to be attended to, as they can develop salt spots.


Our detailing service is a comprehensive cleaning and renewal of your boat. We wash, clean, compound as needed, wax and polish all smooth fiberglass surfaces. We repair any fiberglass chips or gouges. All aluminum and stainless hardware is waxed and polished. Your boat’s bottom paint is renewed. The boat’s cabin is completely cleaned and all surfaces, including cabinets, get wiped down. Hi gloss and matte finishes are serviced, and all glass is cleaned and polished.
The result is that when you get your boat back and ready for the boating season, she looks like she did when you first got her.
