Yacht Detailing in Tampa Bay: 40ft and Larger
Large boats and yachts need a detailing team that understands the scale, the materials, and the expectations. We have detailed vessels from 40 to 100+ feet across Tampa Bay’s marinas and private docks.
Why Yacht Detailing is Different
A 50-foot yacht is not just a bigger version of a 25-foot center console. The surface area is exponentially larger, the materials are more varied (gelcoat, painted surfaces, teak, stainless, glass), and the stakes are higher. A scratch on a $500K yacht is a different conversation than on a $30K fishing boat.
Our team has the equipment, the compounds, and the experience to handle large vessels. We use lifts, scaffolding, and extended-reach tools to access every surface safely.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a full yacht detail take?
A full interior and exterior detail on a 50-foot yacht typically takes 2 to 3 days. Larger vessels or those needing heavy restoration may take longer. We provide a timeline with every quote.
Can you work at my private dock?
Yes. We bring all equipment and supplies to your location. We work at private docks, marina slips, and boatyards across Tampa Bay.
Do you have experience with painted hulls?
Yes. We use different compounds and techniques for painted surfaces versus gelcoat. We will never use a gelcoat compound on a painted hull.
