Boats that glimmer across the water.
MBD Marine Care is a fully insured mobile detailer based in Milford, CT. We bring professional-grade cleaning, polishing, and ceramic protection straight to your dock, from the waterline up.
Your boat is an investment. We treat every hull like it is our own.
MBD Marine Care serves boat owners, marinas, and yacht brokers up and down the Connecticut coast. Founder Matthew Ludden grew up in Milford, a street from the beach and a corner from the Housatonic, watching vessels shimmer on the water. Now his team is the reason they shine.
We do more than a quick wash. Every project gets a meticulous eye for detail, professional-grade products, and long-lasting protection rather than a temporary shine. Most of our work comes from repeat clients and referrals, and that trust drives everything we do.
From a maintenance wash to a three-year ceramic coat.
Pricing is by the foot so you only pay for the boat you have. Larger corrections and specialty work are quoted after a quick assessment.
