In Charleston, boats take a beating. Saltwater, humidity, UV exposure, and constant use can quickly dull gelcoat, stain decks, and leave vessels looking older than they are. At Swift Marine Yacht Management, restoring and maintaining boats is what we’ve done every day for over a decade.
We’ve detailed hundreds and hundreds of boats throughout the Charleston area, from small center consoles to large yachts, and our experience shows in the quality of our work.
Boat owners across Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Isle of Palms, Sullivans Island, James Island, Johns Island and surrounding marinas trust Swift Marine. Our team understands marine finishes, proper restoration techniques, and the level of care required to bring boats back to life.
