Locally owned

Hands On Deck Marine Maintenance is a locally owned boat care company based in Fort Myers, serving boat owners across Southwest Florida. We started out keeping boats clean, and over time our customers kept asking us to handle more: repairs, paint, protection, electronics and the custom projects that tie them together. Today we offer full-service marine care, restoration, protection, upgrades and custom solutions, organized under one point of contact.

What We Believe About Boat Care

Owning a boat should be enjoyable, not a constant chase for the right vendor. A boat is a system: fiberglass, paint, wiring, upholstery and hardware all affect each other. We look at the whole boat, plan the work so the trades fit together, and match the process to the boat’s condition instead of forcing every vessel into the same package.

What Customers Tell Us

Several customers have mentioned our communication in their reviews. Owners appreciate getting updates while their boat is in the shop, having the work explained, and learning how to keep up the shine afterward. Those habits matter to us as much as the work itself.

“I brought in my boat and had them do everything—from repairing the transom to bottom paint and a full detail with ceramic. The whole crew was super nice, and Caden was especially helpful with explaining things and keeping me updated.”

BBradGoogle review

“Hired Cayden’s team to ceramic coat our Pursuit DC365, fix some small nicks on boat, address a leak, redo some caulking on the boat. Team did a great job and the boat looks like new.”

JJimGoogle review

“Excellent service and a great experience. Ryan at Hands on Deck communicates frequently on the status of the work.”

Experience in Southwest Florida Conditions

Salt, sun and storms shape how boats age here. After Hurricane Ian, our team repaired numerous storm-damaged boats, from minor cracks to serious damage. That work, and our everyday care across the region, inform how we approach fiberglass repair, bottom paint and protection.
