What We Do —
And Why It Matters
Every package is engineered for Florida's marine environment — UV intensity, saltwater exposure, and high humidity demand professional-grade materials and technique. Browse the full breakdown below, then let Sentinel answer any questions before you book.
Ceramic Pro Full Coating
Multi-layer 9H ceramic armour — the last protection your vessel will ever need.
Overview
Ceramic Pro Full Coating is the flagship treatment at Kraken's Cut — a professionally applied, multi-layer 9H hardness ceramic coating that bonds permanently to your vessel's gel coat, fiberglass, paint, or RV clearcoat. Once cured, it forms an ultra-slick, hydrophobic shell that sheds water, salt, fuel residue, UV rays, and environmental contaminants before they can penetrate the surface.
Why It Matters
Florida's sun and saltwater are relentless. Unprotected surfaces oxidise, fade, and chalk within a single season. Ceramic Pro halts that process entirely — and unlike wax or sealant, it doesn't wash away. A single application protects for years, dramatically reduces maintenance time, and preserves resale value.
Ideal For
Owners who want maximum long-term protection and the lowest maintenance burden. Ideal for newer vessels or freshly restored surfaces. Also the smartest pre-sale investment — independently verified to add 8–12% to resale value.
What's Included
- Full surface decontamination wash and clay bar treatment
- Machine compound and polish (removes oxidation and swirl marks)
- Panel wipe-down with IPA solution to ensure zero contamination before coating
- Two base layers of Ceramic Pro 9H + one sacrificial top layer
- All glass and chrome surfaces treated with Ceramic Pro Rain & Glass
- Final inspection and cure confirmation
- 5-year written warranty — backed by Ceramic Pro International
Full Interior & Exterior Detail
A complete top-to-bottom transformation — inside and out.
Overview
The Full Interior & Exterior Detail is Kraken's Cut's most comprehensive single-day treatment. It covers every surface — hull, deck, cockpit, upholstery, windows, and all interior panels — and brings each one back to a condition that rivals a showroom finish. This is the service to book before a season opener, a buyer walkthrough, or a photography session.
Why It Matters
A thorough detail does more than look good. It removes the embedded salt, fish oils, mildew spores, and UV-baked residue that slowly degrade your surfaces year over year. Catching it early prevents the kind of damage that turns a detail into a restoration — and keeps your vessel's inspection rating high.
Ideal For
Owners who want an annual or bi-annual deep clean, anyone preparing for a sale or charter inspection, and vessels that get heavy use and haven't had a professional treatment in 6–12+ months.
What's Included
- Full exterior wash, rinse, and foam pre-soak
- Teak and non-skid scrub and treatment
- Hull compound and hand polish (removes minor oxidation and hazing)
- All exterior vinyl, rubber, and trim dressed and UV-protected
- Windshields and port windows polished streak-free
- Full interior vacuum and wipe-down
- Upholstery deep clean and vinyl conditioner applied
- Bilge inspection clean and odour treatment
- Interior panels and cupboards wiped and deodorised
- Final walk-around inspection with owner
Hull Polish & Oxidation Removal
Restore the colour and gloss your gel coat has been hiding.
Overview
Hull Polish & Oxidation Removal is Kraken's Cut's targeted exterior restoration service. It's built for vessels whose gel coat or paint has gone dull, chalky, or streaked — the signature look of UV and salt damage that accumulates from Florida's climate. Using professional-grade marine compounds and dual-action machine polishers, we cut through the dead surface layer to reveal the vivid, glossy colour underneath.
Why It Matters
Oxidation is not just cosmetic — it's the first stage of gel coat degradation. Left untreated, it becomes pitting, crazing, and eventually structural surface damage. A polish restores the protective barrier, slows further breakdown, and gives ceramic or sealant coatings a clean bonding surface if you choose to apply them afterwards.
Ideal For
Vessels with visible chalking, fading, or streaking. Great as a standalone treatment or as prep work before a ceramic coating. Recommended annually for vessels in continuous sun exposure.
What's Included
- Hull wash and decontamination prep
- Heavy-cut compound pass with dual-action machine polisher
- Medium-cut finishing polish to remove compound haze
- Hand wipe and inspection for remaining oxidation
- Marine-grade spray wax or sealant applied as a finishing protectant
- Waterline and boot stripe cleaned and dressed
- 30-day gloss guarantee — if haze returns, we come back
Monthly Maintenance Plan
Consistent care that keeps your vessel looking its best — every month, without the effort.
Overview
The Monthly Maintenance Plan is Kraken's Cut's premium recurring service — a scheduled monthly visit that keeps your vessel in peak cosmetic condition between major details or coating services. Members receive priority booking, discounted add-ons, and a dedicated crew member who learns your vessel's specific needs.
Why It Matters
Salt and UV work on your surfaces every day. A monthly rhythm stops the build-up before it bonds — making each visit faster, lighter, and less costly than a restorative detail every year. Plan members consistently report lower lifetime detailing spend and higher vessel valuations.
Ideal For
Daily-use or marina-kept vessels, owners who want consistent appearance without managing it themselves, and anyone with a ceramic coating who wants to preserve their investment and warranty.
What's Included
- Monthly wash, rinse, and foam treatment
- All exterior surfaces dried and wiped
- Vinyl and rubber trim dressed
- Cockpit and helm console wipe-down
- Spot treatment for bird droppings, fuel stains, or waterline marks
- Quick bilge check and ventilation
- Photo report sent after each visit
- Priority scheduling — plan members book before the public queue
- 10% off any add-on services or upgrades
