What changes the price
Your boat's size. Washes and interiors are priced on her footprint, length times beam, so a bigger boat costs more and a smaller one less.
The level of care. Standard, Detail, Premium or Restore, or tick exactly what you want. Add enough and you simply pay the next level's price, never more.
Where she's kept. There's no travel charge on Sydney Harbour. Middle Harbour, the Northern Beaches and Pittwater, Botany Bay and Port Hacking, Cowan Creek and the Hawkesbury add a set travel charge, already in the price you see.
The boat type. An enclosed flybridge, or a RIB or trailer boat, adds a set percentage, and the builder shows it.
The day. Weekend visits booked on the website cost more: Saturday +50%, Sunday +100%.
How often we come. Make it regular and every visit costs less, up to 15% off.
The more often we come, the less it costs.
