Frequently Asked Questions

While every project is unique based on the size of the wet area and the vessel type, Dryboat® services typically cost 30-50% less than traditional invasive tear-out and core replacement. Plus, you save significantly by retaining your vessel's resale value.

Yes. We have a 100% success rate. After our service, boats pass moisture meter inspections and percussion sounding tests by accredited marine surveyors (SAMS/NAMS). We provide a post-service report validating the dry status.

Once we have all of the information on the vessel, we can give you a timeline based off historical feedback. The drying time depends on the saturation level and core material. However, our process takes a fraction of the time compared to traditional tear-out and replacement. You avoid the long delays associated with major structural reconstruction and fiberglass curing times.

Yes. Once the core is dried to factory specifications and the source of the leak (the intrusion point) is identified and sealed, the core remains dry. We fix the problem, not just the symptom.

We service all of North America for qualifying vessels (typically 30ft+). Our mobile teams can travel to your marina or boatyard.

Absolutely. Our high-pressure air injection system is effective on balsa, plywood, and various foam cores (Divinycell, Airex, etc.). The pressure gradient forces moisture out of the cellular structure of the foam.

Typically, no. One of the biggest advantages of the Dryboat® system is that we can often access and dry stringers and transoms without removing major machinery. This alone can save you thousands of dollars in mechanical labor and rigging costs compared to traditional repairs.

Yes. We stand behind our work. We provide a warranty on the structural dryness of the areas we service, giving you peace of mind that the core integrity has been restored and will remain stable.
