Restored, not replaced
Every surface. One visit.
This pontoon got the lot on the owner’s own dock: compounded gelcoat, cleaned and conditioned seats, a scrubbed deck and every hatch opened and done.


Five stages, one visit
What we do at your dock.
The hull map up top isn’t decoration. Its five callouts are the five stages of a full Ride & Tide visit. Tell us which ones your boat needs.

Oxidation
Chalky, faded gelcoat compounded and buffed back to gloss, then sealed with marine-grade wax.

Pay when it’s done
Nothing is paid online. Payment is due when the work is finished and you’ve looked it over.
Locally owned and operated
The owner trains the crew.
Ride & Tide is Kyle Griffin’s business, and he’s on the docks doing the work. He trains the crew that works on your boat himself.
Ceramic coating costs three times as much as wax… I still think it’s the best option.
Wax only lasts six months… I’ve seen properly treated ceramic coating jobs last three plus years.
His opinion from the job, not a promise: results depend on the surface and how it’s looked after.

All questionsDo I have to bring my boat somewhere?
No. We come to your dock and detail the boat where it sits, on the lift or in the slip. There is no haul-out. Cars and trucks are done in your driveway.
How much does boat detailing cost?
Boat work is priced per foot of length: Marine Interior + Exterior Detail is $10 per foot, Compound Polish + Wax is $75 per foot and Marine Ceramic Coating is $130 per foot. A 26-foot boat is $260 for the full detail. Price can vary with size and condition, so the final number comes after we see the boat or your photos.
How often should a boat be detailed?
Kyle’s rule of thumb: wash it monthly if you can, and every four months at the very least. Salt and sun never take a day off. Ask us about monthly wash plans.
Ceramic coating or wax?
In Kyle’s words: “Ceramic coating costs three times as much as wax… I still think it’s the best option,” and “Wax only lasts six months… I’ve seen properly treated ceramic coating jobs last three plus years.” Results depend on the surface and how it is looked after; a coating still needs maintenance.
