The most common question we get is simple: how much does it cost to clean my boat bottom in Miami? Here is a straight answer plus the factors that move the price up or down.
The typical rate
In-water hull cleaning in Miami generally runs about $4–$5 per foot. A 30-footer lands around the lower end; a larger yacht with heavy growth costs more. You get an exact quote up front — and with Aqua Pro you pay only after the job is done.
What changes the price
- Boat size — priced per foot, so length is the biggest factor.
- Growth level — a hull left for months with thick barnacles takes more work than one on a regular schedule.
- Cleaning frequency — boats on a monthly plan stay easy to clean and cost less per visit.
- Extras — zinc anodes or propeller service add to the visit.
In-water vs haul-out cost
A haul-out adds a travel-lift fee, yard labor and storage — easily hundreds of dollars before any cleaning. In-water diver cleaning skips all of that, which is why it is the affordable choice for routine maintenance. More on that in our in-water vs haul-out comparison.
How to actually save money
The cheapest hull in the long run is the one that never gets badly fouled. A regular 4–8 week schedule keeps each cleaning quick, protects your bottom paint, and improves fuel efficiency so the service partly pays for itself. See our Miami hull cleaning guide for the full picture.
