  • Why is it important to wax and cosmetically maintain your boat?

    The importance of maintenance is heavily weighted towards the mechanical side of your investment. While that's very important, it's also important to protect the cosmetic aspect of your boat. The UV rays from the sun can be very harmful to your boat's gelcoat and other surfaces. A protective layer helps protect your gelcoat and metals, keeping them looking new and maintaining that beautiful luster. Call today to learn more from our boat detailing experts.

  • What are your services?

    As the leader in boat detailing services, T’s Marine Co provides numerous services owners might need. These vary from protecting and cleaning up your boat so that it's ready for the season to deep diving into restoration work and bringing neglected boats back to life. Contact us today to request service.

  • How does wax differ from other sealants?

    The traditional wax was developed to provide a layer of protection over a surface. As technology has changed, and formulas for coatings have advanced, new coatings have been developed that bond to the surface. With wax, that coating over the surface will wear away over time. However, sealants that are bonded to the surface provide a longer-lasting protective layer. Let us help you today with our exceptional boat detailing services.

  • What does the sun do to gelcoat?

    Gelcoat is a fantastic material used in many boat-building processes to provide a beautiful finish. However, it's important to maintain that beautiful finish or oxidation will take over. Gelcoat is porous, which means it's susceptible to absorbing the UV rays from the sun.


    Without a protective layer, oxidation occurs, which is the result of the UV rays breaking down the unprotected gelcoat. This results in a chalky, ugly-looking surface. 

  • Why is preventative maintenance important?

    Maintaining your boat and surfaces through waxes and sealants is crucial. When oxidation starts occurring, it takes two steps to restore it to its original condition, rather than one simple maintenance step. Reach out today to get started with our boat detailing services.

  • How do ceramic coatings compare to wax coatings?

    Ceramic coatings provide a much more durable protection than wax. Wax provides a layer over a gelcoat (or other surface), while a ceramic coating bonds to the surface. This means that when faced against the elements, it will last longer than older, traditional waxes. It's important to note that ceramic is not a “one-and-done” solution. It does require maintenance from boat canvas and upholstery professionals. Give us a call today for prompt service from T's Marine Co.

  • Why choose Starke Yacht Care products?

    Starke Yacht Care products were created for detailers, by detailers. They understood the problems faced with outdated products and went about finding ways of improving them. Their products are made specifically for the marine environment and the harsh conditions your boats are exposed to. 


    An important note regarding their ceramic coatings is that they're specifically formulated for gelcoat. They are not car ceramics used on boats. They are ceramic coatings made specifically for boats, and the company backs their products with tremendous support. If you'd like to learn more about Starke Detailing products, contact us today.

  • What are wash programs?

    Wash programs are 100% worth the weekly or biweekly expense of maintaining your boat's appearance. Washes involve a top-to-bottom "sudsing" of the boat, wiping out hatch gutters, drying, and ensuring the boat's overall pristine appearance is maintained. These programs also allow for upkeep in waxing/sealants to make sure your boat is always protected against the elements. We'd love to assist you with our boat detailing services.

  • Why choose us?

    T’s Marine Co was started back in 2017 out of the passion for keeping boats looking good. From the owner's formidable years working on a charter fishing boat on Cape Cod, the appearance of the boat was just as important as the fish catching.


    What’s the first thing to notice when looking at a boat? It’s the appearance. That’s why our number one goal, when people look at a boat after being serviced, is to hear “Damn, that boat looks good.” We like pretty boats. Let us make yours sparkle today with quality boat detailing and canvas and upholstery services
