Marina
Del Rey Boat Cleaning Feedback
"I
Now "Fly" to Catalina and Back."
"I noticed I was consuming much more fuel to maintain
my normal speed. I also saw it was taking 27% more
time for my normal weekend trips to Catalina Inland.
I suspected marine growth and knew I was overdue to
boat bottom cleaning. I was astonished when I found
a new (to me) hull cleaning service who showed me
the evidence.
I saw photographic and video evidence of barnacles
and marine plant life on the hull of my boat. The
entire process can be lengthy and costly if you delay
boat hull cleaning.
My boat speed and efficiency were returned to normal.
I now "fly" to Catalina and back. Bottom cleaning
is necessary." - Captain
John Thomas, Age 55, Marina Del Rey, CA |
"I am Happy My Fuel Bills Declined by 37%"
"The hull of your boat is a magnet for things detrimental
to the health of your vessel. Regular, scheduled boat
hull cleaning is necessary for boat speed.
The local marina del rey dive service recommended
my boat be cleaned every 3 weeks during the spring
and summer. This yacht service has cleaned boat bottoms
over 30 years.
I learned the age of my boat's anti-fouling paint
was a factor in how often the boat's hull required
cleaning. The water line hides a multitude of sins.
I am happy my fuel bills declined by 37% after my
boat bottom cleaning. I also got the rest of my boat
cleaned. But boat bottoms need frequent cleaning."

Boat
Cleaners - Frequently Asked Questions
|
What
is the best way to get the hull of your boat cleaned?
Let
me be blunt, you bought your boat to enjoy it.
You
didn’t buy it to spend hours cleaning it every week.
You also thought, “Holding my breath while I dive
repeatedly under my boat to clean the hull” didn’t
sound appealing, did it?
Therefore,
the best way is simply to use a professional boat
hull cleaning service with years of experience by

easy on yourself. We'll call you. |
Bottom
cleaning is necessary- Do you know why?
The marine environment
is an unforgiving one. The sea itself, plant and animal
marine life will foul the bottom of your boat and
its running gear such as trim tabs, props, shaft(s),
transducer(s), knot meter, and intakes. |
Is
bottom cleaning necessary for boat speed?
Yes.
Barnacles, algae, scum and other things will attach
themselves to the boat bottom, propellers and metal
running gear. This creates a “drag” on speed of the
vessel as it moves through the water. This means you
boat will be slower. Vessel acceleration takes longer.
|
Does
bottom cleaning increase boat speed and efficiency?
Yes.
The question above covered boat speed. By efficiency,
you probably mean fuel efficiency. You will use more
fuel to go the same distance with a fouled hull bottom.
It
could mean using up to 47% additional fuel or more
depending on the amount of fouling. |
What
is boat bottom cleaning?
Again,
this assumes you have your boat docked or it is dockable
in Marina Del Rey or elsewhere in Southern California
and its length exceeds 15 feet. Certified divers will
clean your boat with brushes and other tools while
underwater. Sometimes divers will use a tool with
two brushes that rotate to clean your hull.
This
may make less frequent the time necessary for a physical
haul out for periodic painting and service.
Prop
repair, gel coat and fiberglass repair may be included
as part of the boat bottom service necessary.
Change
sacrificial zinc anodes to prevent galvanic corrosion
or electrolysis. This is when underwater electrical
currents will quickly corrode and weaken metal parts
such as propellers, shafts, nuts and rudders.
This
may include debris removal such as ropes, nets, crab
pots, and other foreign debris entangled in running
gear. |
How
can I find a good hull cleaning service?
The
simple answer is to enter your contact info in the
box above (If you haven't already, then Click Here
Now ==> Bottom Clean).
Someone from a top bottom cleaning service will contact
you within 24 business hours or less.
Relax.
We make it easy for you. Don’t waste your time driving
around from service to service or on multiple telephone
calls. We’ll call you!
If
you have any questions, call us at 424-262-1613
during business hours. |
What
should I expect from a good boat hull cleaning service?
New
customers should expect a free bottom cleaning inspection
with a photo and/or video survey. Expect a full service
boat cleaning service to include topside and as well
as underwater cleaning, waxing and repairs.
The
cleaning may be priced per foot of your boat or yacht.
Expect the boat cleaning service be insured, licensed
and dive certified. Expect the company business experience
to exceed 5 years.
Services
should include interior and exterior painting, teak
maintenance with varnish and oil and complete boat
detailing. All work should be guaranteed.
|
Do
cleaned boat bottoms mean safer boats?
Yes.
Obviously when you spring a leak, you may not be able
to “pull to the side of the road” and wait for a tow
to the garage (smile). Your vessel must be able to
float!
Boat
bottom cleaner services will repair or warn you about
damage to your hull and running gear. Boat propeller
repair and boat motor repair may be part of the service. |
Why
should my boat be cleaned every 3-4 weeks?
Summertime
means higher temperatures so marine life grows faster.
Therefore, boat bottom cleaning every 3 weeks is recommended.
This assumes your boat bottom has antifouling paint
in good condition.
Bottom
Cleaning every 4 weeks in the winter is recommended.
Antifouling
paint in poor condition will require more frequent
bottom cleaning in the winter and summer.
|
How
to clean boat- is there an easier way?
There is no easy way
to keep your vessel clean. The only question is whether
you will use your own hard-earned free time or simply
write a check for expert professional underwater hull
and topside cleaning and boat detailing. |
What
are your boat cleaning tips?
Wash
your boat down with fresh water after every trip.
Remove as much salt residue as possible. Why? The
saltwater will eat away at the boat’s finish. This
assumes you are boating in a saltwater environment.
Use
a pH-balanced marine soap to scrub the boat. Scrub
small areas then rinse. Scrub the hull above the water
line, fittings and the deck. Use a deck brush with
bristles of medium stiffness.
Wash
from the top down, therefore start with the exterior
portion of the boat or yacht above the deck including
the windshield, vinyl seats, and deck boxes.
Use
an absorbent cloth like a chamois to dry the boat.
Wash
the windows with a commercial product. Failing that,
use a combination of water and vinegar.
Hit
the vinyl with a vinyl-cleaning product to protect
the upholstery.
If
you have, outboard motors clean them also.
Sound
like a lot work? Is this more than you have time or
inclination? As I said earlier, you bought your boat
to ENJOY it. Right?
Now,
there is nothing wrong with doing this work occasionally
so you can make sure all is shipshape. However, it
is so much easier to supervise the work of a licensed,
insured and professional boat cleaning company.

Boat
waxing tips- what are they?
It
is a good idea to wax your boat to protect it from
marine elements. These elements include the sea and
the sun’s rays.
A
waxed hull is a faster hull because there is less
drag. Waxing will help to decrease the amount of fuel
consumed.
Use
a high quality liquid cream wax.
Carefully
follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the best
results.
Waxing
is time consuming and hard work. If you work hard
enough already, we’ll call you to take the work off
your shoulders. If you haven’t already, Click Here

relax with your boat. |
