Every vessel
back in the water.
Fiberglass hulls ground back to gelcoat. Outboards torn down to the block. Neglected boats returned seaworthy in weeks, not months.
The full yard, not a
partial solution.

S/V Meridian Tide
Osmotic blistering and full gelcoat failure across the waterline
Full hull peel to bare laminate, vacuum-bagged epoxy barrier coat, fairing compound, and antifouling system.
After 14 seasons without a proper haul-out, the owner noticed paint bubbling along the waterline. Ultrasound confirmed moisture ingress throughout the hull skin. Left another season, the laminate would have begun to delaminate.
Three in four owners who haul out at Drydock come back. The work speaks.
M/V Saltwater Margin
Cummins 6BTA overheating at cruise RPM — heat exchanger and raw water pump failure
Raw water pump replacement, heat exchanger recore, impeller housing bore, full cooling system flush, zincs, and sea trial.
The owner, a liveaboard cruiser preparing for a Bahamas crossing, noticed coolant temps spiking above 195°F at 2200 RPM. A failed raw water pump impeller had been running dry long enough to score the pump housing. Secondary damage found in the heat exchanger core.
From haul-out to launch. Charter operators don't lose a season. Liveaboards don't lose a month.
S/V Blue Meridian
Complete offshore refit — standing rigging, electrical repower, and deck hardware
Full standing rigging replacement, 12V electrical repower to ABYC standards, deck hardware replacement, windlass service, and insurance survey.
A charter operator preparing for Caribbean routes needed a comprehensive refit before the boat could pass survey. Standing rigging was original and showing wire fatigue. The 12V electrical system had grown into an unsafe web of spliced wire. Deck hardware showed 20 years of UV degradation.
Since 2008. Every one documented. Every one launched on schedule.
We work at dawn.
You launch on time.
Drydock has operated on the north bank of the St. Johns since 2008. We're not a big box marina — we're a working yard. The smell of acetone and bottom paint is permanent. The jack stands are always full. And the standard is the same whether you're dropping a 28-footer for bottom paint or a 55-foot ketch for a complete refit.
Every job gets a dedicated technician, a written scope before work starts, and a 32-point sea trial checklist before you relaunch. We don't subcontract the work that matters.
32-Point Inspection Standard
Every vessel goes through our full diagnostic checklist before sea trial. Nothing leaves the yard unverified.

No surprises. Scope and cost in writing before the first tool is picked up.
Dedicated Technician Per Job
One tech owns your vessel start to finish. No handoffs, no communication gaps.
On-Time Relaunch Guarantee
98% of vessels launch on the date we agree. Charter operators trust their season to us.
