Pier Sixty-Six Marina is one of Fort Lauderdale’s iconic waterfront destinations, sitting on the Intracoastal Waterway with direct access to Port Everglades and the Atlantic. The marina’s central ICW location means strong tidal exchange and fast-fouling conditions for every vessel docked here. Whether you keep a center console or a full-size yacht at Pier 66, Aqua Pro Yacht Maintenance provides professional hull cleaning directly at your slip — NAUI-certified divers, no haul-out required, same-day photo report.
Hull Cleaning Services at Pier Sixty-Six Marina
Aqua Pro provides full underwater maintenance at your slip — no haul-out, no yard fees, no trailer required. Here is what we do at Pier Sixty-Six Marina:
- Hull Cleaning — Complete removal of barnacles, tube worms, algae, and slime from your hull, keel, and rudder. Most boats at Pier Sixty-Six Marina need cleaning every 4–8 weeks in these South Florida waters.
- Zinc Anode Replacement — We inspect and replace sacrificial anodes on props, shafts, trim tabs, and hull fittings. The high-salinity ICW and ocean-adjacent water accelerates galvanic corrosion — we check zincs on every visit.
- Propeller Cleaning & Polishing — Fouled props reduce fuel efficiency by up to 30% and stress your drive train. We clean props at the dock and can remove, service, and reinstall if needed.
- Underwater Inspection & Photo Report — Full photo documentation of your hull, running gear, through-hulls, and zincs. Required for insurance claims and essential for tracking paint condition over time.
- Dock & Piling Cleaning — If your slip at Pier Sixty-Six Marina includes assigned dock sections or pilings, we clean those as well.
Why Boats at Pier Sixty-Six Marina Need Frequent Cleaning
The Intracoastal Waterway through central Broward County flows between the Atlantic barrier islands and the mainland, with tidal exchange from both Port Everglades to the south and Hillsboro Inlet to the north. This dual-inlet influence means Pier Sixty-Six Marina sees a near-constant supply of barnacle larvae from the open ocean. Fort Lauderdale’s ICW is warmer and slightly more saline than Biscayne Bay, making biofouling here aggressive year-round. The area is also one of the highest-traffic waterways in the U.S., and prop wash from passing vessels keeps the water continuously mixed — resuspending barnacle larvae and accelerating settlement on nearby hulls. Vessels here typically need cleaning every 4–7 weeks.
