Yacht Maintenance

Fort Lauderdale and Miami. Part of a management program.

A vessel that runs is worth more than a vessel that sits. Scheduled maintenance is the difference.

We keep your boat fully operational, current on service, and ready to enjoy at a moment’s notice. Our technicians work to a written schedule built around your vessel and how you actually use it.

The work below happens whether or not you are in town, and you see it in the app after every visit. That record matters twice: once while you own the boat, and again when you sell it.

What is on the list.

Everything below runs as part of the maintenance program, and how often each line applies is set when we survey the vessel.

On every scheduled visit

  • Engine and generator fluid inspections
  • Engine and generator startup procedures
  • Main panel systems evaluation
  • Weekly vessel inspections
  • Tank level monitoring
  • Seacock exercising
  • Sea strainer cleaning

Scheduled and seasonal

  • Engine and generator service scheduling
  • A/C and acid flushing
  • Bottom cleaning
  • Corrosion prevention
  • Basic mechanical repairs
  • Warranty work coordination

One coordinator holds this list against your vessel, on one invoice. What happens on the boat is written up in Mariner Pro the same week, by the people who were standing on it.

Questions owners ask.

How often does a yacht need maintenance?

Most vessels in South Florida need attention weekly or every other week. Salt water, sun, and humidity work on a boat continuously, so the interval is driven by the environment rather than by engine hours. We set the schedule with you when we survey the vessel.

Do you handle warranty work?

Yes. We coordinate warranty claims and scheduling with the builder or dealer so you are not managing that correspondence yourself.

The rest of the program.

A management program runs the services together, on one invoice. The mix is set when we survey the boat, because a vessel used most weekends needs a different program from one that mostly sits.

  • Exterior Detailing Wash, polish, and ceramic coating on a schedule built around how you use the boat.
  • Interior Detailing Laundry, deep clean, and turnover so the boat is ready before you arrive.
  • Project Management Yard periods, refits, and vendor work, overseen by someone who answers to you.
  • Captain and Crew Insurance-verified, background-checked captains scheduled for any trip.
  • Concierge Flights, dockage, reservations, and the arrangements that happen off the boat.
  • Hurricane Planning Your insurer wants a filed plan. We source it, document it, and execute it.
