How do you clean a yacht?

Start by rinsing the exterior with fresh water to remove salt and debris. Clean the hull, deck, and windows with a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft brush or sponge. Inside, vacuum the carpets, wipe down surfaces, and clean upholstery with a fabric-friendly cleaner. Clean the engine room often and check for any signs of mold or mildew.

What not to use to clean a boat?
  • Abrasive scrubbers. These can damage surfaces and finishes.
  • Harsh chemicals can harm gel coats, upholstery, and metal parts.
  • Bleach. It damages materials and harms the environment.
  • Pressure washers. These might cause damage to seals and sensitive areas.
How often should I clean my boat using Sea-Shield products?

For optimal results, we recommend cleaning your boat with Sea-Shield products after every outing, especially if it’s been exposed to saltwater. Regular use helps prevent salt, grime, and pollutants from sticking to the surface and causing corrosion or wear. Thanks to Sea-Shield’s long-lasting protective coatings, you’ll spend less time cleaning and more time enjoying your vessel — all while keeping it in top condition.
