The stains Gulf Coast boats collect

Tannin-stained water leaves a brown mustache at the waterline. Fittings weep rust down the hull. Humidity grows mildew on any surface that stays damp. Left alone, these stains bond deeper into the gel coat and get harder to remove without damaging the finish.

What we remove

  • Waterline stain removalThe stubborn brown scum line that builds along the hull comes off with dedicated hull cleaners, not guesswork with household chemicals.
  • Rust and corrosion stainsRust streaks below rails and fittings are dissolved and neutralized before they spread or etch the surface.
  • Algae, mold, and mildewOrganic growth on decks, non-skid, and vinyl is killed and cleaned so it does not come right back the next week.

How it works

Call (941) 356-7769 or send the form with your boat's length, condition, and where it is docked. We quote the job, usually the same day, then schedule a visit and do the work right at your dock, lift, or marina. You get the boat back better than you left it, without it ever leaving the water.

Stain Removal: common questions

Can waterline stains be removed without hauling the boat?

Usually, yes. We remove waterline staining dockside on the exposed hull. Staining below the waterline requires the boat on a lift or trailer, which we can work with.

Will stain removers damage my gel coat?

Not the ones we use, applied correctly. We match the product to the stain and the surface, then rinse and neutralize. Following stain removal with wax protects the cleaned area.

Why does my hull keep staining at the waterline?

Southwest Florida's brackish, tannin-rich water stains gel coat wherever it sits against the hull. A regular wash program and a good wax coat slow it down considerably.

Do you remove mildew stains from vinyl and canvas?

Yes. Mildew removal on vinyl seating and canvas is part of our vinyl cleaning and canvas cleaning services, and we can bundle it with hull stain removal.
