Teak cleaning
Teak will turn grey over time. If you don't like the grey look, then we can clean, brighten and seal your teak to maintain its fresh golden appearance. If your teak is uneven under foot, we can generally sand down the peaks then clean and seal it.
Great care is taken with your boats teak to ensure its longevity. Harsh scrubbing and constant cleaning / brightening will reduce its service life considerably by thinning the teak and eventually causing the caulking to fail.
If you do prefer the golden colour of teak, we highly recommend sealing the teak with Semco or similar teak sealant. Doing so will greatly reduce the amount of harsh scrubbing required to keep your teak clean.
Boat Clears
Your boats clears are an investment. To ensure your clears remain soft and serviceable, they should be cleaned regularly and polished quarterly.
GC Boat Management uses IMAR cleaners and polishes to maintain your clears. Keeping your clears polished not only protects from UV, it also creates an anti-static layer so that dust and salt are easily rinsed away.
Most boaties rinse their boats after use however, very few dry their clears after rinsing. Unfortunately, the minerals in the tap water can leave water spots on your clears, causing scratches and a loss of clarity over time.

Stainless Steel Polishing
Although materials used on boats is generally of the highest quality, stainless steel and aluminium in the marine environment as susceptible to corrosion. If left untreated, this corrosion can form pits in the surface of the metal requiring extensive remediation or replacement.
GC Boat Management can polish your metal rails and deck hardware to ensure corrosion is removed promptly and a protective barrier applied to slow the recurrence of future corrosion.
Window Polishing
If left to dry on the surface, salt spray and minerals in the water used to rinse your boat will etch into the windows causing water spots. These spots can be unsightly and notoriously difficult to remove.
GC Boat Management can polish your windows to remove these water spots and seal the surface to slow their recurrence.
