Her whole year, one monthly payment.
A care plan brings together the work your boat needs over a year — regular washes, a polish, the annual lift and antifoul, the engine service — each at its own rhythm. We add it up for 12 months and split it into equal monthly payments, under a simple written agreement.
What a care plan gives you
- The whole year planned — Every service agreed up front and booked on a schedule, so nothing is missed.
- One monthly payment — The same amount each month, instead of big bills when the lift or the polish comes round.
- Clear, in writing — Every service and its value in a simple agreement, at the price agreed for the term.
Three steps to a planned year.
- Tell us about your boat — Her size, where she's kept and what she needs over the year. If it helps, we'll come and look.
- We put your plan together — Each service at its own frequency, each with its price, added up for 12 months. You see it all before you agree to anything.
- Sign, and we keep her on schedule — You sign a simple agreement and pay the same amount each month. We let you know before each visit.
Choose what we look after.
Tick the areas you'd like checked, add a regular wash if you want one, and see the monthly amount straight away. Nothing is charged until you sign the agreement.
One boat's year, as a care plan
Here is a care plan we put together for one owner's boat in 2026, with the services described simply. Your boat's size and condition set your prices, so your plan will be different.

About care plans.
- What can go in a care plan?
- Most of what your boat needs over a year: regular washes and interior cleans, polishing, the annual lift and antifoul, the engine service, and regular checks of your boat's condition and equipment, so small problems are found early. Tell us what's on her list and we'll tell you what we can include.
- How is the monthly amount worked out?
- We price each service for your boat, multiply it by the number of times it's done in the 12 months, add everything up and divide by 12. Your agreement lists every service, how often it's done and what it's worth.
- What if she needs something that isn't in the plan?
- We quote it separately. It doesn't change your plan unless we both agree to it in writing.
- Can I end a care plan early?
- Yes, with 30 days' written notice. A plan is based on the work done, not the months that have passed, so we then compare the value of the services already delivered with what you've paid and settle the difference either way, and a cancellation fee set out in your agreement may apply. Big jobs like the annual lift can fall early in the year, so read the agreement before you sign: it has the full details.
- Do I have to renew at the end of the year?
- No. The plan can be renewed if we both agree, and we'll tell you about any price change at least 30 days before it ends.
