We just got back to the bay area after several years of cruising. Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced and responsible diver that will come to the east bay (Emery Cove) to clean the bottom of our boat?

I say responsible because last time we were in the bay area we had a diver who I discovered was only cleaning the first couple feet that were visible and when I went down with a snorkel and mask I was shocked to find the rest of the hull untouched and dirty.

Thanks,
Todd

We have kept a boat at Pier 38 Marina for a number of years and use Sea Wolf Marine Services. Work has been excellent and consistent all this time.

I recently had a bottom cleaning and zinc replaced by Todd Florey of Tradewimds Sailing School. He did an excellent job and his price was very reasonable. He primarily works at Marina Bay in Richmond where the Tradewinds boats are located but You could ask if he does work at other bay area marinas.

His card says Diving and Yacht Maintenance so he probably does other boat repair work also. I wont post his cell number, but here is the nimbler for Tradewinds where you can ask to get in contact:

Todd,
If you still need a diver, let me recommend FastBottoms Hull Diving, of which I am the owner. 16 years experience with over 20,000 bottoms cleaned. We have an excellent reputation and I urge you to ask your harbormaster, Diane Isley for her opinion. Thanks.
