Where most detailers stop — we're just getting started.
Full deep-clean detailing for the gel coat surfaces most people never see: hatches, anchor lockers, motor rooms, and bilge areas. Degreased, brightened, and protected so your boat is as clean below deck as above.
What this service is really about.
A boat that shines on the outside but has a grimy bilge, oily engine room, or crusted anchor locker isn't finished. These below-deck spaces hold the boat's mechanical heart, its ground tackle, and the systems that keep you safe — they deserve the same care as your topsides.
We degrease bilges with marine-safe cleaners, wipe down engine rooms without touching wiring or hoses that shouldn't get wet, deep-clean hatches and their gel coat channels, and scrub anchor lockers of mud, rust runs, and salt buildup. The result is a boat that inspects well, smells right, and stays reliable.
Real results — from a real crew.

Common questions.
Is it safe to clean around my engine and wiring?
Yes — we hand-wipe engine surfaces with marine-safe cleaners and avoid direct water on connectors, sensors, and open wiring.
How often should the bilge be detailed?
Most boats benefit from a proper deep bilge clean once or twice a year, plus quick spot-cleans during recurring wash visits.
Can this help me pass a survey?
Absolutely — buyers and surveyors look hard at bilges and engine rooms. Clean spaces suggest a well-maintained boat.
