For most boats with effective anti-fouling paint, a clean every 4 to 6 weeks is ideal—especially within the first 12 months of paint application. Cleaning may be needed every 2 to 3 weeks for boats with worn or weakened anti-fouling protection.
No, underwater cleaning won’t damage your anti-fouling paint. We use specialized non-abrasive tools and marine-grade cleaning pads designed to safely remove growth while preserving the integrity of your coating. Our methods are tailored to suit the condition and type of paint on each vessel.
You’ll know your boat needs a hull clean if you notice reduced speed, increased fuel use, vibration while underway, difficulty maintaining RPMs, or visible marine growth on the hull, prop, or waterline. These are common signs of fouling affecting performance.
Yes, we can clean your boat while it remains in the water. All hull cleaning is performed by divers underwater, and wash and wax services are completed topside. There’s no need for haul-out or dry docking, making it a convenient and efficient maintenance option.
Regular hull cleaning can improve fuel efficiency by up to 30% by reducing drag caused by marine growth. Less resistance reduces the wear and tear on your engine, resulting in smoother performance, lower fuel consumption, and fewer long-term maintenance issues.
We’ll email you a detailed before & after photo report along with a tax invoice. The report includes diver notes highlighting any important findings, ensuring full transparency and confirmation that the job has been thoroughly completed.
