This is a 100% on-your-feet, hands-on boat detailing class. Historically these are the most hands-on boat detailing classes on planet Earth. We bring in the WORSE condition, dark colored gelcoat boats that have turned white with oxidation because these types of boats provide the most and best learning advantages.

Start time - Class starts at 8:30am SHARP and goes until approximately 5:30pm on Saturday and approximately 4:00pm on Sunday. Each student will fully restore and detail one boat.
Overview - This class covers how to take the worst condition boats and restore them to factory new condition and actually better than factory new condition. Most boats brand new from the factory come with holograms already in the gelcoat finish. By using neglected gelcoat boats, we are able to teach you every aspect of boat detailing. After taking the class you’ll be able to inspect a boat, determine which steps are needed to remove the oxidation and restore a show car finish to a boat.
Day 1 – Extreme Boat Prep Washing and Interior Detailing
The first day goes over all the best tools, products and techniques to get a neglected boat spic-n-span clean! The foundation for the final results is a super clean boat to start with and then each step on the second day builds on this foundation
Two approaches for top cap detailing,
Day 2 – Extreme Boat Gelcoat Correction & Ceramic Coating
We bring in extremely neglected boats with deep gelcoat oxidation for a very important reason. A boat with severe oxidation enables us to teach you the most boat gelcoat restoration techniques so you have ALL the skills and knowledge to tackle ANY boat that comes your way.
