What Affects the Price

• •Boat size. A 25-foot center console costs less than a 60-foot yacht. Straightforward.
• •Level of fouling. Light slime takes minutes. Heavy barnacle growth takes hours. Regular cleanings keep costs down.
• •Additional services. Zinc replacement, prop cleaning, through-hull inspection — these add value but also add time.
• •Location. Some marinas are easier to access than others. Remote docks or tight slips may take extra time.

Why Regular Cleaning Saves You Money

Here's what most boat owners miss: a fouled hull creates drag, and drag costs fuel. Regular cleanings every 2–4 weeks help keep that cost down.

Add in the cost of premature bottom paint failure, and regular hull cleaning is one of the best investments you can make as a boat owner.
