Default Boat cleaning

Does anybody know a good place to get a bay boat cleaned and buffed for a decent price?

We detail boats fully for 300 here in baton rouge and that's boats up to 25ft... That's vinyl cleaning and protection, wash, wax and apply a slim safe protectant... Hope that helps a little

It's not oxidized that bad, it's more the inside of the boat than the outside. It has rust stains, black marks, blood stains etc. The non skid surface in this boat is the ones that dimple into the boat and it's a pain to clean. I would like to find someone to do a good cleaning then I could stay in top of it after that.

I know a guy in Moss Bluff that will do it at his house. If you're interested, I can get his number for you. Just let me know.

There is a detail shop close to Lake Area Marine that does great work. I used to have them detail my bay boat every April. They were under $200 for sure. Magic clean comes to mind...???

bleach tide and a pressure washer works great, then just apply some polish to make it easier next time.

Bleach isn't good to use on non skid decks from what I hear. It will lead to the material breaking down in sunlight
