Detailing for lagoon boats that never stop sitting in warm salt
Jensen Beach boats live on the Indian River Lagoon, and most of them stay in the water. Hardtops at Jensen Beach Marina, bay boats and flats skiffs along Nettles Island, pontoons on the docks at Indian River Plantation: all of it sits in warm salt year-round with sun overhead most days.
That steady exposure shows up as faded gelcoat, and a rinse does not fix it. We cross the causeway to detail at your dock or slip, or meet you at the Jensen Causeway ramp or Indian Riverside Park if your HOA or dock setup makes home visits awkward. Everything starts with a free walkthrough so you see the number before work begins.

Can you detail my boat at Nettles Island or Indian River Plantation?
Yes. Send the dock location and any gate details when you book and we will come to the boat.
Does Jensen Beach have a trip fee?
No. It is one of the cities where we charge no trip fee, so the cost is the detail itself.
What if my HOA does not allow work on the dock?
Meet us at the Jensen Causeway ramp or Indian Riverside Park with the boat on the trailer. We can do the detail there instead.
Is buffing enough for a boat that has sat in the water for years?
It depends on the gelcoat. One pass works when the finish is decent. Faded or chalky gelcoat usually needs the two-pass compound cut and polish, and the walkthrough is where we make that call.
