    How It Works

    From Haul-Out to Splash

    1

    Haul-Out & Inspection

    We coordinate haul-out at your marina and perform a thorough hull inspection โ€” documenting all damage, paint condition, and areas that need attention.

    2

    Prep & Surface Work

    Proper preparation is everything. We sand, clean, degrease, and fair the hull surface. Old paint is removed as needed, and repairs are made before any coating goes on.

    3

    Application & Coating

    Gel coat or bottom paint is applied in controlled conditions with professional spray equipment. Multiple coats, proper cure times, and meticulous masking ensure a flawless result.

    4

    Final Inspection & Launch

    We inspect every inch of the finished work, touch up any imperfections, and coordinate splash with your yard. Your boat goes back in the water looking better than ever.
