The far western end of our range, and the most demanding stretch of coast we work.

Captain Harbor, Cos Cob Harbor, Byram Harbor

Greenwich is the western edge of our service area and about fifty minutes down I-95 from Milford. We do not come here for a single quick wash. We come for larger jobs, ceramic coating work, and owners who book several boats at one club or yard so the trip earns itself.

The town runs an unusual setup. Four resident marinas at Byram, Cos Cob, Grass Island, and the Greenwich Point boat yard operate from mid-April to mid-November on facility use permits, and alongside them sits a cluster of private clubs and commercial yards along the Mianus River in Cos Cob. Between the two you get a wider spread of boat sizes here than anywhere else we work.

Local conditions

Two very different problems in one town

The town marinas are full of small boats. Byram and Grass Island cap out around 21 to 22 feet, and Cos Cob at 28. These are open boats with no cabin top shading anything, and they take full sun on the gelcoat, seats, and non-skid all season. Oxidation shows up fast and a sealant is worth more than owners expect on a boat this size.

The clubs and Mianus River yards are the opposite. Larger vessels, deeper pockets, higher standards, and finishes that are expensive to correct once they go. On those boats we push hard for ceramic coating rather than repeat compounding, because the cost curve on a large hull only runs one direction. Captain Harbor is also genuinely exposed western Sound water, so salt spray is relentless out on the moorings.

Matt was a pleasure to work with and did a great job detailing my 24' Grady White. Matt made himself super available to see the boat, get me a quote and get the job done

Matt and team compounded and waxed my boat today....very pleased with the outcome. They were very meticulous , and ensured the entire site and boat stayed clean. Recommend them to anyone looking to have their vessel detailed.

Matt and his team did a great job bringing the shine back on my 2001 boat. Matt's communication was fantastic and his pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend using Matt's services.

Matt of Matt's Boat Detailing (MBD) is the real deal. He cleaned up a mess that a different detailer made. With Phase I complete, my boat looks great! I am so happy I finally got to use his services. He is a hands on owner operator which I think is very important. He took the time to visit and advise as well as inspect the final work making adjustments as necessary. He knows what he is doing and he and his crew even properly prepped to protect neighboring surfaces, which most boat detailers are too lazy to do. I am looking forward to him completing Phase II and using his services moving forward! I will be recommending him to everyone I know that is looking for boat detailing services.

Matt & his team did a great job on my 2009 44 Sea Ray SB! Top side compound polish & wax, hull detail, and a fresh coat of bottom paint... she's looking like she just came off the showroom floor! Can't recommend him enough. Great communication, reliable, and professional.

Matt and his team did a phenomenal job bringing our 2004 Tiara gel coat back to life! This included a wet sand and finished with a ceramic coat. The boat shines and is now protected like never before!

You get what you pay for! Matt's services fully lived up to my lofty expectations and my boat looks better than when leaving the showroom. Matt will be my go to guy for any detail related jobs I may require in the future.

My Experience with Matt's details was truly top notch! First off I called him very late in the spring and he came up with a way to get my Hull done to follow up with the super structure once in the water. This year I opted to go with not only a compound and seal but also went down the ceramic coating route in hopes of getting an extra year out of the job. First off his pricing is very competitive compared to few others I checked. Matts work was amazing and the boat looks brand new! Lastly, his communication was spot on. As with any spring/early summer project in New England, we had plenty of weather related issues. He kept me posted every step of the way, touched base with any reschedules, let me know when he got there, and lastly when he left. I could not be more pleased with my decision to use Matts Detailing and will be a return customer for sure next year to “touch up”. I highly recommend reaching out to Matt for any detailing work!
