What owners say

They came to my slip and fixed the fuel gauge and depth finder and that same day and I was back on the water. Excellent team. Nadine was super helpful!

FAQ

Before you book.

When does the winterization actually happen?
We start winterizing in late September and run through the first hard freeze, usually mid-December. Our team confirms your service date and storage availability separately. Submitting a request or paying a deposit does not reserve either automatically.
Do I need to be there?
No. Most jobs happen without the owner on site — we just need access to the boat at its slip, lift, or driveway. We sort out the details when we confirm your booking.
I store my boat indoors — do I need the shrink wrap?
Yes. Every winter package includes shrink wrap at $30 per foot, power washing at $10 per foot and engine service.
What happens after I send the request?
Your request is saved with a private quote page. Standard setups receive an itemized estimate; anything needing a closer look goes to our team. The office follows up to confirm details and scheduling.

Something else on your mind? Call (302) 470-9508 — our team can help with your quote and arrangements.
