Protect your investment below the waterline. Whether you keep your boat in the water year-round or just want peak performance on the water, a professional bottom paint job is essential for reducing drag, preventing fouling, and extending the life of your hull.
At Proficient Marine, we provide high-quality bottom painting and hull prep services for boats of all sizes — with clean work, trusted materials, and fast turnaround.
South Florida waters are warm and full of marine growth. Without protection, your hull becomes a magnet for barnacles, algae, and slime — all of which reduce performance, increase fuel consumption, and can cause long-term damage.
We use top-tier antifouling paint and prep every surface properly to ensure maximum adhesion, clean finish, and lasting protection.
