Welcome to Holt Marine. Based in Torbay, Devon, we are a premium yacht detailing service. We bring over ten years of professional detailing experience, alongside a dedicated focus on the marine sector for the last two years, to deliver a meticulous approach to vessel care.
From routine maintenance to advanced gelcoat correction and antifouling, we understand what it takes to protect your boat from the harsh marine environment. We treat every vessel with the utmost care, giving you peace of mind and a showroom finish on the water.
Hover or tap a plate to see what each one involves.
Restore the original showroom shine to your hull. This specialised machine polishing process eliminates heavy oxidation, surface scratches and UV damage, leaving the gelcoat with a deep, flawless gloss.
Protect your vessel from the harsh marine environment. We apply premium marine waxes and advanced ceramic coatings to seal your vessel's exterior, providing superior UV protection, exceptional water beading and a long-lasting defence against the elements.
Optimise your yacht's performance and fuel efficiency. We expertly prepare your hull and apply high-quality antifouling bottom paint to effectively prevent the build-up of barnacles, algae and other marine growth below the waterline.
Keep your running gear operating at peak performance. We apply industry-leading PropOne foul-release coatings to your propellers, shafts and underwater metals, stopping marine growth to maintain maximum speed and reduce underwater vibration.
Step into a spotless, refreshed cabin. We offer comprehensive interior cleaning, from deep cleaning carpets and upholstery to sanitising galleys and heads, ensuring your living quarters are as immaculate and inviting as your exterior.
Keep your vessel looking its best year-round. We provide thorough, safe exterior cleaning to remove salt spray, grime and environmental fallout, preventing long-term degradation and maintaining your yacht's pristine appearance.
Enjoy completely hands-off ownership with our comprehensive, year-round management package. We handle the complete lifecycle of your vessel's maintenance, from routine monthly washdowns to managing the annual haul-out for polishing, servicing and antifouling. Every step is fully documented with photos and videos, providing total transparency, peace of mind, and a yacht that is always ready for the water.
Your peace of mind is our priority. We are fully insured to handle vessels of all sizes, so your investment is completely protected while in our care.
