How Often, Realistically
Most lake-home owners book us twice a season — spring opening and fall closing. Heavy-use boats (multiple weekend trips, water-sports use) often add a mid-season touch-up. Cruisers and bigger boats sometimes go monthly during the season.
How We Price a Full Detail
Pricing is per-foot of boat length with adjustments for boat type (pontoon vs. runabout vs. cruiser), condition (annual cleaning vs. heavily neglected), and access (private dock, marina slip, lift). We give a written quote after we know the boat. Here’s how our quotes work.
