“Hull 2 Prop has been servicing my vessel for a few months now. The company has been a pleasure to work with from the office staff who are very knowledgable to the dive teams. They are very professional, they are on time, and they always follow up with us if there are any issues that we need to be made aware of. I would recommend this company to anyone that is looking to have their boat cleaned and maintained properly.“

Boat Bottom Cleaning FAQs

What does a boat bottom cleaning service include?

Boat bottom cleaning involves removing algae, slime, barnacles, and other marine growth from your boat’s hull, running gear, propellers, and thru-hulls. This can be done in the water by divers or out of the water after a haul-out. Regular bottom cleanings help maintain speed, fuel efficiency, and overall performance.

What types of boats need bottom cleaning?

Any boat that’s stored in the water—especially in saltwater or brackish environments—will benefit from regular bottom cleaning. This includes sailboats, powerboats, fishing boats, yachts, and even personal watercraft. Whether your boat is docked, moored, or stored in a slip, growth on the hull is inevitable.

How do I get a quote for boat bottom cleaning through Boat Planet?

Submit a bottom cleaning request on Boat Planet with details about your boat—make, model, length, and where it’s located. Local bottom cleaning pros will respond with quotes and availability. You’ll often receive photos or a report after the cleaning is completed.

Do bottom cleaning pros come to my boat, or do I need to haul it out?

Most bottom cleaning pros offer in-water cleaning and can come to your dock or marina. For more extensive cleanings or inspections, your boat may need to be hauled out. Just let the pro know your boat’s status and storage location when submitting your request.

How long does a boat bottom cleaning take?

The duration depends on your boat’s size and the level of fouling. A routine bottom cleaning may take 1–2 hours, while boats with heavy growth or complex hull designs can take longer. Your pro will give you an estimate after reviewing the job.

How often should I have my boat bottom cleaned?

Bottom cleaning frequency depends on your location and how often your boat is used. In warm, nutrient-rich waters, cleaning every 4–6 weeks is common. In cooler climates, every 2–3 months may be sufficient. Regular cleanings help extend the life of your bottom paint and prevent performance issues.

How much does boat bottom cleaning cost?

Pricing varies based on boat size, level of growth, and whether the cleaning is done by a diver or after a haul-out. Expect rates to start around $3–$8 per foot for in-water cleanings. You’ll receive up to three quotes on Boat Planet to compare options from local bottom cleaning professionals.

What should I do to prepare for a boat bottom cleaning?

Ensure your pro has access to the boat and knows if it's in the water or on land. If it’s at a marina or boatyard, notify staff or provide access instructions. Removing personal items and securing loose gear is also helpful. Your pro will let you know if any additional prep is needed.
