Boat Detailing

upnorth · 02-11-2009, 03:35 PM

Can anyone recommend a good and not too expensive boat detailer in the Meredith area. I know, I could do it myself, but I've been putting it off for years now. Everytime I want to do it, the weather is fine and I wind up just putting the boat in the water for the season...

Thanks in advance.

The BEST!!

John Spooner @ Diamond Shine! He is honest to a fault. He details all sorts of boats from small family runabouts, big cruisers to high performance boats! He will travel to your location.

I am very particular about my 26' Donzi, and somehow he keeps it looking like new! Absolutely the best in the business!

I second that recommendation. Although I have not personally used him all I ever hear are positive things about him. He has a great reputation for quality and pricing. From what I've heard you can not go wrong using him. He's been doing it for a while.

I'll "Third" Spooner, he buffed out my boat a few years back (very nice job) and has waxed it a few more times. Not the cheapest but does a nice job

I use Shep Browns for my detailing,just give Steve or Chris a call.First time I had it done was when I came up from FL with it in the spring and compared to what I paid in FL it was a bargain.

Spooner is the guy.

He really knows his stuff. Can make a 20 years old boat look like new!

Based on what everyone said about diamond shine, I contacted Mr. Spooner yesterday, and he replied today (sunday), what great service. Thanks for the recommendation.

Attention to Detail out of Moultonboro

He charges around $10 a foot and will drive to you. I don't have his number but I'm sure you can look it up in the phone book. He does great work and his attention to detail is outstanding.

I would also reccommend Attention to Detail.
The owner is Keith Mayotte and he can be reached at 603-475-8707 or at attndetail@gmail.com.
I have used him as have several of my fellow boaters and he is great.
He is also very reasonably priced.
