The result? Your yacht maintains its value, performs at its peak, and turns heads every time you pull into the marina. You spend your time enjoying the water, not worrying about maintenance.
Legacy Motors and Marine has been serving Point o’Woods’ discerning boat owners with the same level of care and discretion the community expects. We understand the unique challenges of maintaining luxury vessels in Long Island’s marine environment.
Point o’Woods’ position on Fire Island exposes boats to salt air, UV rays, and moisture year-round. We’ve built our reputation by protecting what matters most to owners who value performance, craftsmanship, and prestige. From the Point o’Woods Yacht Squadron’s racing fleet to private luxury yachts, we treat every vessel like our own.
Our climate-controlled facility and specialized marine expertise ensure your investment receives the protection it deserves, whether it’s seasonal storage or regular maintenance throughout the boating season.
We start with a thorough assessment of your vessel’s condition, identifying areas that need surface correction, gel coat restoration, or specialized attention. Every boat is different, and our approach reflects that.
Next comes the deep cleaning phase. We address the hull, deck, and interior with marine-specific products designed for Long Island’s harsh saltwater environment. Oxidation removal, black streak elimination, and surface preparation happen before any protective treatments.
The final phase focuses on protection and preservation. We apply ceramic coatings for long-lasting defense against UV rays and salt damage, condition teak surfaces with synthetic sealers, and ensure your interior is moisture-controlled and mold-free. You receive your vessel back in showroom condition, ready for whatever the season brings.

Our boat detailing services go far beyond a simple wash and wax. You receive gel coat restoration that brings faded fiberglass back to its original luster, specialized teak cleaning that eliminates mold and restores natural beauty, and interior moisture control that prevents costly damage during storage.
Point o’Woods boat owners face unique challenges. The island’s salt air accelerates oxidation, while humidity creates perfect conditions for mold growth. Our ceramic coating applications provide superior protection against these elements, lasting months longer than traditional treatments.
We also handle the logistics you don’t want to deal with. Concierge-style pickup and delivery means your boat moves safely between our climate-controlled facility and your marina slip. Weekly maintenance programs keep your vessel water-ready throughout the season, so you never miss perfect boating weather because of maintenance concerns.
The frequency depends on how you use your boat and where you store it. For Point o’Woods boat owners who keep their vessels in slips during the season, we recommend full detailing every 3-4 months with weekly maintenance washes in between.
If you store your boat in our climate-controlled facility, you can extend the time between major details since your vessel isn’t exposed to salt air and UV rays constantly. However, boats used regularly in Long Island Sound benefit from more frequent attention due to salt spray and sun exposure.
Our ceramic coating applications change the game entirely. These treatments last 4-6 times longer than traditional wax, meaning you can go 12-18 months between major protective treatments while maintaining that showroom shine.
Our gel coat restoration process addresses oxidation, chalking, and surface imperfections that develop from sun and salt exposure. We start with a multi-stage compound and polish system, using progressively finer abrasives to remove oxidation and restore clarity to your gel coat.
For heavily oxidized surfaces, we may recommend wet sanding to remove deeper imperfections before polishing. This process eliminates the chalky appearance and brings back the deep, glossy finish your boat had when new.
After restoration, we apply either premium polymer sealant or ceramic coating for long-term protection. The ceramic option provides superior durability and makes future cleaning much easier, as dirt and salt residue wipe away without aggressive scrubbing.
Yes, we specialize in teak care using a three-step process designed for Long Island’s marine environment. We start with non-acid based cleaners that eliminate mold, dirt, and black staining without damaging the wood fibers.
For lightly soiled teak, we use eco-friendly powder cleaners that brighten and clean in one step. More challenging situations require our multi-stage approach, which may include wet sanding for heavily weathered surfaces.
We finish every teak treatment with synthetic sealers that provide longer-lasting protection than traditional teak oils. This approach maintains that beautiful blonde color longer while protecting against moisture penetration and UV damage that causes cracking and splitting.
Ceramic coating creates a semi-permanent protective layer that bonds chemically with your gel coat, unlike wax which sits on the surface. Think of it as adding a clear coat to your boat, making dirt, salt, and water stains wipe away with minimal effort.
Traditional wax lasts 2-3 months in Point o’Woods’ harsh marine environment. Our ceramic coatings maintain their protective properties for 12-18 months with proper care. You spend less time cleaning and more time enjoying your boat.
The coating also provides superior protection against oxidation, which is crucial for boats exposed to Long Island’s intense summer sun and salt air. While wax offers basic protection, ceramic coating actually prevents UV damage and makes your gel coat more resistant to staining and etching from salt deposits.
Absolutely. Interior moisture control is critical for Point o’Woods boats, especially during storage periods. We use commercial-grade dehumidification systems and moisture-absorbing treatments to maintain optimal humidity levels in your cabin areas.
Our process includes thorough cleaning of all interior surfaces with marine-specific antimicrobial products, followed by moisture barrier applications in problem areas. We also inspect and treat ventilation systems to ensure proper air circulation.
For boats with existing mold issues, we provide complete remediation services using professional-grade equipment and treatments. Prevention is always better than remediation, which is why our storage clients receive regular moisture monitoring and control throughout the off-season.
Yes, we provide concierge-style pickup and delivery service throughout the Point o’Woods area. Our trained operators handle the transportation logistics, so you never have to worry about moving your boat to and from our facility.
We coordinate directly with your marina or private dock to schedule pickup at your convenience. Your boat travels on specialized marine transport equipment designed to protect your investment during transit.
Delivery timing works around your schedule, whether you need your boat back for a specific event or just want it ready for weekend use. We also provide detailed documentation of all work performed, so you know exactly what services your vessel received during its time in our care.
