Yacht Painting in Palm Beach, Broward & Miami-Dade

Showroom-grade paint systems for yachts and premium boats, from a single damaged panel to a complete color change. Metallic, solid and custom finishes, applied by a team with over 20 years of marine refinishing experience.

Premium Yacht Paint

Paint systems engineered for the South Florida sun

Florida’s UV, heat and salt air are hard on any finish. A yacht paint job that lasts starts long before the first coat: sound substrate, careful fairing, the right primer, and a two-part marine coating applied with controlled spray technique.

That is how N&E Yachts Services delivers a deep, mirror-like gloss with crisp lines and true color, whether we are refinishing a center console or repainting the hull of a 90-foot motor yacht.

  • Hulls, topsides, superstructures and hardtops
  • Metallic, solid and custom color matching
  • Fairing and spot repairs blended invisibly
  • Mobile service at your dock, or yard coordination for full repaints

What We Paint

From the waterline to the hardtop

Complete refinishes or targeted repairs, always prepared and finished to the same uncompromising standard.

Hulls & Topsides

Full repaints, color changes and panel refinishes with crisp boot stripe and sheer lines.

Superstructures

Cabin sides, flybridges and deck structures refinished to match or upgrade the original finish.

Hardtops, Arches & T-Tops

Faired, primed and painted for a flawless, uniform gloss overhead.

Metallic & Custom Colors

Factory color matching and custom metallic finishes with depth and consistency.

Spot & Panel Repairs

Damage repaired and blended so the repair disappears into the surrounding finish.

Bottom Paint

Barrier coat and antifouling systems that protect the hull below the waterline.

Our Process

How we deliver a flawless finish

A paint job is only as good as its preparation. Each stage is inspected before the next begins.

01

Inspection & Plan

We assess the substrate, existing coatings and any damage, then define the paint system and timeline in writing.

Protection & Masking

Decks, glass, hardware and adjacent surfaces are covered and sealed to keep overspray and dust out.

Metallic & Custom Finishes

Color with depth and presence

Metallic paints are the most demanding finishes in marine refinishing. Even application, consistent flake orientation and flawless clear coat are what separate a true showroom finish from a blotchy one.

We match factory colors using manufacturer codes and test panels, and we help you choose custom colors that suit your yacht’s lines, from gunmetal and graphite to deep navy and pearl white.

Painting FAQ

Yacht painting questions

Not sure whether your yacht needs paint, repair or restoration? We are happy to take a look.

How long does a yacht paint job take?

It depends on the vessel’s size and the scope of work. Spot and panel repairs can take days, while a full topside repaint or color change takes longer because of the preparation involved. You receive a realistic timeline in your written plan.

Can you match my yacht’s original color?

Yes. We match factory colors, including metallics, using manufacturer paint codes and test panels so repairs and refinishes blend with the existing finish.

Can my yacht be painted at the dock?

Many repairs and refinishes are done at your marina or private dock with proper containment. Full repaints and color changes are best done in a boatyard or controlled environment, which we coordinate for you.

How long will the new paint last?

A two-part marine paint system that is properly prepared, applied and maintained keeps its gloss for many years. Regular washing and a ceramic coating help protect the finish even longer.

Should I paint or restore my gelcoat?

If the gelcoat is in good condition, restoration and polishing may be all you need. When gelcoat is worn through, crazed or heavily repaired, paint is the better long-term solution. We will tell you honestly which one fits your yacht.

Do you remove and reinstall hardware?

Yes. Rails, fittings, lettering and hardware are removed or masked as needed and reinstalled after painting for clean, professional lines.
