Your boat,like the first day.

Gelcoat restoration, mirror-finish polishing and ceramic coating at your berth. We polish a panel for free, you judge the result.

Four treatments, one result: shine.

Everything is done above the waterline, with the boat at its berth.

Gelcoat restoration

Oxidised gelcoat turns chalky and loses its colour. We bring it back in stages to a deep, brilliant hull, just like when it left the shipyard.

From €48 per metre of length (sample price)

Boat
10 m motor yacht
Condition
Dull

Sun and salt dull the gelcoat.

It isn't dirt: it's oxidation. The resin layer turns chalky and stops reflecting. Washing won't fix it; you have to remove the oxidised layer and seal the surface.

It loses colour
Blue turns grey and white yellows, even when the boat is clean.
It holds dirt
The surface becomes porous: it stains sooner and is harder to get clean.
It costs value
It's the first thing a buyer notices when the boat goes up for sale.

Run a marina or sell boats?

We prepare boats for sale and get whole pontoons ready before the season, with terms for marinas, brokers and dealers.

Frequently asked questions

Does the boat need to come out of the water?

No. We work above the waterline with the boat at its berth, with the marina's permission. No haul-out, no crane fees.

How does the free test patch work?

We choose a panel of the hull together and polish it with no commitment. If you like the result, we quote you for the whole boat.

How long does the job take?

It depends on the length and the state of the gelcoat. A polish usually takes one or two days; a restoration with heavy oxidation can take a little longer. We confirm it once we see the boat.

How long does the shine last?

An unprotected polish starts to fade with a season of sun and salt. With a ceramic coating the shine and protection last several seasons with normal washing.

Do I need to be there?

No. We arrange access with the marina and, when we finish, send you the report with before and after photos on WhatsApp.

Do you issue invoices?

Yes, always. We agree the final price in writing before we start.
