Boat Washes & Maintenance in PB Gardens
Fresh-water washdowns, chamois dry, metals wiped, and interior refresh on a standing schedule — the program that keeps a boat looking new for a decade.
Zea Detailing provides mobile boat washes & maintenance detailing in Palm Beach Gardens & North Palm Beach — at Harbour Point Marina, Safe Harbor Old Port Cove, Safe Harbor Soverel Harbour, and private docks in Old Palm and Lost Tree Village — for boats from 20 to 100+ feet. Licensed, bonded and insured; based in West Palm Beach; Palm Beach County.
What it is: A boat maintenance detail is a scheduled, professional fresh-water washdown and wipe-down of the entire vessel — hull, deck, glass, stainless, upholstery — that removes salt before it etches the finish. In South Florida, weekly or bi-weekly service is what separates boats that stay new from boats that need restoration every two years.
Boat Washes & Maintenance on PB Gardens water and driveways
A center console racked at PORT 32 Palm Beach Gardens and a Viking on a wet slip at Safe Harbor Old Port Cove build salt two different ways. The racked boat comes down dry, picks up a hard load of spray on the run out the inlet, and bakes it in on the way back to the lift. The wet-slip boat never leaves, so the salt arrives as fog off the Intracoastal and settles on stainless, glass, and Awlgrip every night. Same water, different math, so the wash cadence is not the same boat to boat.
We run our own water and power, so nothing gets pulled off a dock box at Soverel Harbour or North Palm Beach Marina. Dry-stack boats get scheduled against the yard's pull, so the hull is washed and chamois-dried before it goes back in the rack instead of drying in the sun on the forklift apron. Inside Old Palm, Lost Tree Village, Frenchman's Creek, and Harbour Isles we keep vendor registration and insurance certificates current, so the gate has us on file. You get a condition note after each visit, before it turns into restoration work.
What PB Gardens does to a finish
Low-mileage collection care
Garage-kept cars still need protection — dust nibs, humidity film, and flat-spot washing damage are real. We maintain collections on gentle, scheduled cycles.
Marina & dry-stack programs
Old Port Cove wet slips and PORT 32 dry stacks run different salt math — we set the cadence for each and coordinate pulls with the yard.
Gate + HOA coordination
We handle vendor registration, insurance certificates, and HOA requirements in every gated community we serve — set it up once, never think about it again.

We carry the insurance certificates these facilities require and coordinate directly with the dockmaster or yard.

Boat Washes & Maintenance in PB Gardens — FAQ
Good questions
How much is a boat wash?
$10 per linear foot for a fresh-water wash, $30 per foot for a wash and wax. A 34-foot center console is $340 or $1,020. Most recurring clients settle into a flat monthly number once we have seen the boat and the dock.
What does a boat washdown include?
Fresh-water wash of all exterior surfaces, chamois dry, glass and stainless wiped spot-free, non-skid scrubbed, and a quick condition check of upholstery and metals. Coated boats get coating-safe wash chemistry that extends protection life.
Can you maintain a multi-car collection on a schedule?
Yes — collection maintenance is a core service in the Gardens. We design a rotation so every vehicle gets appropriate care at the right interval, from the weekend 911 to the daily Denali.
Do you service boats at Old Port Cove, Soverel Harbour, and PORT 32?
We do — along with Loggerhead, Harbour Point, North Palm Beach Marina, and private dockage in Harbour Isles and Lost Tree Village. Marina insurance requirements are handled by us.
Does the wash change if my boat is dry-stacked at PORT 32 instead of in a wet slip at Harbour Point Marina?
Yes. A dry-stacked boat needs the wash timed to the pull, hull and running gear included, since it only touches water when you run it. A wet-slip boat at Harbour Point Marina takes nightly salt fog and waterline growth, so it runs a tighter surface cadence and gets its boot stripe checked every visit.
Can you wash the cars in the garage on the same visit as the boat?
Yes, that is a common add-on in Old Palm and Lost Tree Village. While we are on site for the boat, we run a gentle maintenance wash on the garage-kept cars. A Porsche or Range Rover that mostly sits still still collects dust nibs and humidity film. Same visit, same gate clearance.
