Yacht & Boat Race Preparation Services

Winning a race depends on many things, but good preparation is where it all begins. A clean, smooth and properly prepared hull can help your yacht perform at its best, giving you greater confidence when you reach the starting line.

Whether you race regularly throughout the season or are preparing for a major annual event, our yacht race preparation services can help get your boat ready. We can tailor the work to suit your vessel, your racing schedule and the level of preparation required.

Hull preparation can include lifting, scrubbing and re-launching, along with eco-friendly antifoul removal and professional preparation for repainting. Fresh antifoul can then be applied, with Wet n’ Dry finishing available to create a smoother surface where required.

We can also carry out hull polishing and waterline preparation to ensure the exterior of your yacht is clean and well presented. These finishing touches can form an important part of preparing the boat before race day.

Mechanical preparation is just as important. Winches can be serviced and key mechanical items checked to help ensure everything is operating correctly before you head out on the water.

To help reduce unnecessary weight, we can also assist with the removal and storage of heavy or non-essential inventory items before racing. Once the event is over, we can help return your boat to its usual setup and get everything back in order.

After racing, we can also help clean and dry the vessel, including arranging for a dehumidifier to run onboard until the interior is properly dry. If you need help preparing your yacht for an upcoming race.
