Boat shows
FLIBS runs October 28 – November 1, 2026; Miami follows February 10–14, 2027. A clean bottom is part of how a yacht is judged — and it cannot be fixed the night before.

A fouled hull loses speed and burns more fuel. A buyer who feels a boat run soft during a trial does not forget it.
Surveyors go in the water. A clean bottom with a documented condition log answers questions before they are asked.
Drone and underwater shots are standard in brokerage listings now. Growth shows.
Clear water at the waterline, no green skirt at the boot stripe. Buyers read it as a boat that has been looked after.
Growth in South Florida returns within days as a film and within weeks as hard barnacles, so a cleaning done too early is wasted. The useful rhythm before a show is a pass roughly three to four weeks out, then a final pass in the last five to seven days. Members on our four-week cycle are already on that rhythm; we simply align the visit with your show dates.
Show weeks are the busiest of the year on these docks. Slips are full, access is restricted and every service company in South Florida is working the same basins. Booking in September for FLIBS, or in December for Miami, is the difference between a scheduled visit and a scramble.
We operate from the dock, in the water, with no haul-out and no travel lift — which matters when the yard is booked solid and the boat cannot leave its berth. The robot is quiet, the growth is captured on board rather than released into the basin, and you receive the HD video the same day, ready to hand to a broker, a surveyor or a buyer.
For brokerage houses and captains managing several vessels at a show, the Prestige membership covers a fleet with priority scheduling. See the memberships.
If you are a marina or yacht club handling show traffic and want one accredited hull-care operator on your docks — with every intervention documented and nothing released into your basin — talk to us about a partnership.
