Before and after footage

Watch your own hull get cleaned

Every service is filmed. You get the hull before the crew goes in and again when they come out, and it lands with you after the visit without you having to ask. Owners tell us it’s the part they didn’t know they wanted.

The before cleaning video and after cleaning video makes you feel that you’re right there. Makes you feel good on where your money is going.

Our crew were customers first

More than half the crew started out as customers. They watched how the job got done and asked whether there was a place for them, which says more about the standard than anything we could write here.

What owners say once they’ve used us

I just started using Sea Strong Marine this year and I couldn’t be happier. They communicate well and show up when they say they will. I pay a little more for the service, but it’s well worth it to know they’re doing it right, and providing video proof.
David Greene
I was definitely impressed with their work. It was quoted reasonable and the guys were on time and professional. If you are in Norfolk they are the crew you want working on your boat.

What a service starts at

Everything is priced by the foot. Your final number comes with the quote, before any work begins and before you commit to anything, and a recurring schedule costs less per visit than calling us out one job at a time.

Questions we get asked most

For a boat kept in the water year round here, every four to six weeks through the warm months and every eight to twelve weeks over winter. Growth in the Chesapeake moves fast from May onwards, and a hull left three months will cost you speed, fuel and eventually the paint underneath it.

Hull cleaning is priced by the foot, and a recurring schedule works out cheaper per visit than calling us out job by job. Add anodes once or twice a year, a detail in spring, and bottom paint every two to three seasons, and most owners of a boat that size spend somewhere between $1,200 and $2,500 across a year. We can put real numbers against your own boat the same day you ask.

We come to you. Everything below the waterline is done in the water at your slip, and detailing is done there too. Your boat stays where she is and you don’t need to be there.

We handle all of it. One crew covers hull cleaning below the waterline, detailing above it, and paint when she’s due. It means one company to call, one invoice, and a crew who already know your boat rather than someone starting from scratch every time.

Anything from a 25ft centre console up to a 70ft sport fish, and we’ve worked on plenty either side of that. Pricing is per foot, so the size of the boat is already built into the number. If you’re not sure whether yours is a fit, just ask.

Usually within the same week if our schedule allows, and often sooner. If you have a fouled prop or a blocked intake, give us a call and we’ll work out how quickly we can get someone to you.
