Hear from Our Customers
Your boat isn’t just transportation—it’s a significant investment that deserves protection from Long Island’s harsh marine environment. Salt spray, UV rays, and constant moisture take a toll that regular washing simply can’t address.
When you choose professional boat detailing, you’re getting more than a clean vessel. You’re getting restored gel coat that gleams like new, protected surfaces that resist future damage, and peace of mind knowing your investment maintains its value season after season.
The difference shows immediately. That chalky, oxidized finish transforms back to deep, rich color. Teak decking regains its natural beauty. Your entire vessel looks and performs like the day you bought it.
At Legacy Motors and Marine, we understand what it means to own something exceptional. We’ve built our reputation around one simple principle: exotic vehicles and luxury vessels require precision, protection, and respect.
Our team brings decades of experience working with high-end marine assets throughout Remsenburg and the greater Long Island area. We know the unique challenges that come with owning a boat in these waters—the salt air, the summer sun, the constant exposure to elements that can damage even the finest vessels.
That’s why boat owners who demand the best choose us. We don’t just clean your boat; we protect your investment with the same attention to detail we’d give our own prized possession.
Every boat detailing project starts with a comprehensive assessment. We examine your vessel’s current condition, identify problem areas, and develop a customized approach that addresses your specific needs.
Our process begins with a thorough wash using specialized marine-grade products designed to remove salt buildup, algae, and other contaminants that regular soap can’t handle. We then move to surface restoration—addressing oxidation, minor scratches, and gel coat imperfections that dull your boat’s appearance.
The final step involves protection. Whether that’s premium wax, ceramic coating, or specialized treatments for teak and vinyl, we ensure your boat is shielded against future damage. You get detailed before-and-after documentation, plus maintenance recommendations to keep your vessel looking its best between professional services.

Our boat detailing services go far beyond a simple wash and wax. We offer comprehensive interior and exterior detailing, gel coat restoration, and specialized treatments that address the unique challenges of marine environments.
Exterior services include hull cleaning, oxidation removal, gel coat polishing, and protective coating application. We handle everything from minor scratch repair to complete surface restoration. Interior detailing covers cabin cleaning, vinyl conditioning, carpet and upholstery care, and mold remediation when needed.
For Remsenburg boat owners, we understand the specific challenges of Long Island Sound conditions. The constant salt exposure, summer heat, and winter storage requirements all factor into our service approach. We use marine-specific products and techniques that deliver lasting results in this demanding environment.
Most boat owners benefit from professional detailing every 3-6 months, depending on usage and storage conditions. If you keep your boat in the water during season, quarterly detailing helps maintain protection against constant salt exposure and UV damage.
Boats stored on trailers or in covered slips can often go 4-6 months between full details. However, regular washing every 2-3 weeks is still important to prevent salt buildup and surface staining.
The key is consistency. Regular professional care prevents small issues from becoming expensive problems and keeps your boat looking showroom-ready throughout the season.
Regular washing removes surface dirt and salt but doesn’t address deeper issues like oxidation, gel coat deterioration, or protective coating breakdown. Boat detailing is a comprehensive restoration process that repairs, protects, and enhances your vessel’s surfaces.
Professional detailing includes multi-stage polishing to remove oxidation and scratches, specialized treatments for different materials like teak and vinyl, and application of protective coatings that last months rather than weeks. We also address areas that regular washing misses—bilge cleaning, detailed interior work, and thorough inspection of all surfaces.
Think of washing as maintenance, while detailing is restoration and protection. Both are important, but detailing provides the deep care your investment needs to maintain its value and appearance.
Yes, gel coat restoration is one of our specialties. Oxidation makes your boat’s finish look chalky, dull, and faded, but it’s usually just surface damage that can be corrected with proper techniques and products.
Our restoration process involves carefully removing the oxidized layer through progressive polishing stages, revealing the fresh gel coat underneath. We then apply protective coatings to prevent future oxidation and maintain that deep, glossy finish.
The results are dramatic—boats that looked tired and worn transform back to their original luster. However, severely neglected gel coat may require more extensive work or even professional refinishing, which we can assess during our initial inspection.
Absolutely. We bring our professional detailing services directly to your boat’s location—whether that’s your marina slip, private dock, or storage facility. Mobile service eliminates the hassle of transporting your boat and allows us to work around your schedule.
Our mobile setup includes all the equipment and products needed for comprehensive detailing. We bring our own water supply when needed and ensure proper waste disposal to protect the marine environment. This convenience is especially valuable for larger vessels that are difficult to move.
We service the entire Remsenburg area and surrounding Long Island communities. Mobile appointments can typically be scheduled within a few days, and we’ll provide detailed timing and preparation instructions when you book.
We use only premium marine-specific products designed to withstand the harsh conditions boats face. Our product selection includes specialized cleaners, polishes, and protective coatings from trusted marine industry brands that deliver superior results and longevity.
For protection, we offer everything from traditional marine waxes to advanced ceramic coatings that can last 12-18 months. Teak care involves eco-friendly cleaners and sealers specifically formulated for marine wood. Interior products include marine-grade vinyl conditioners and fabric protectants.
We’re selective about our products because we know that marine environments demand more than standard automotive products. Every product we use is chosen for its effectiveness in salt water conditions and ability to provide lasting protection for your investment.
Boat detailing costs vary based on your vessel’s size, condition, and the services needed. A basic exterior detail for a 25-foot boat might start around $400-600, while comprehensive interior and exterior detailing for larger yachts can range from $1,500-5,000 or more.
Factors affecting price include boat size, current condition, specific services requested (like gel coat restoration or ceramic coating), and whether additional services like teak care or interior deep cleaning are needed. Boats requiring extensive restoration work will cost more than well-maintained vessels.
We provide detailed estimates after assessing your specific boat and discussing your goals. Our pricing is transparent—no hidden fees or surprise charges. We believe in delivering value that protects and enhances your significant investment.
