Working in Lake Travis
What to expect
Lake Travis is hard on a boat. Full sun on the open water, mineral-heavy lake water that spots everything, and the green line at the waterline that shows up after a few weekends. We come to wherever the boat lives: a private dock in Lakeway, a lift on Hudson Bend, a slip at the marina or on the trailer in your driveway.
We bring fresh water and power, so you don’t need a hose on the dock. The hull gets a hand wash and spot cleaning, the vinyl gets cleaned and protected to help prevent cracking, the metal and chrome get polished, and the carpet and compartments get cleaned out. Then a marine sealant goes on, because UV is what fades gel coat out here.
The water level on Travis moves a lot from year to year, and so does how close we can get to a dock. Tell us where the boat is when you book, and we’ll confirm access the day before. For boats on lifts, it helps to leave it raised. For boats in the water, we work from the dock or swim platform, and the price never changes because of how far we walk.
Marina slips work too, including Hurst Harbor and Emerald Point near Lakeway and VIP Marina and Sandy Creek on the Volente side. Some marinas ask outside vendors to check in first, so tell us your marina and slip when you book and we’ll sort it out before we come.

Boat packages
Priced by length
Every boat package is a set price for its length class: up to 21 feet, or 22 feet and up. The number you book is the number you pay unless you add something at the dock, and nothing is added without your OK.
Most boats on a lift or in a slip do best on a monthly Deckhand wash with a Captain once or twice a season. If the gel coat has gone chalky, the Admiral adds a one-step polish to bring the shine back.

Questions
Lake Travis questions
If yours isn't here, text us.
Where on Lake Travis do you go?
The lower end of the lake near Mansfield Dam: Lakeway, Rough Hollow, Hudson Bend, Point Venture and Volente. Further west toward Lago Vista or Spicewood, text us the location and we’ll tell you if it works.
Can you clean the waterline stain?
The Captain and Admiral include hull spot cleaning, which handles light staining. A heavy ring that has built up all season takes a dedicated cleaner and more time, so we look at it first and quote it before we start.
My gel coat is chalky. Can it be fixed?
Usually. The Admiral includes a one-step polish that clears light oxidation. Heavy chalking needs a compound first, which we quote after seeing it. A marine ceramic coating on top slows it from coming back.
Do you detail pontoons and tritoons?
Text us a photo and the length first. Pontoon decks and furniture vary a lot, so we confirm the price before we come rather than guess.
Do I need to be there?
No. We need to know where the boat is, how to get to the dock or lift, and a gate code if there is one. You get a text and photos when it's done.
Do you bring your own water and power?
Yes, everything. Fresh water for the final rinse, power for the tools, and all the products.
When do I pay?
After the detail, once you've looked the boat over. Booking saves your card without charging it. The charge goes through when the job is done.
How do I book?
Pick a package and your length on the boat page, choose a day and time, and tell us where the boat is. Or text us at (512) 387-2863 with a photo.
Ready when you are.
Book in a minute, pay when it's done. No deposit, and free rescheduling until the day before.
