Paradise Point Marina sits right on the edge of the Delta in Stockton, a full service marina with slips, a fuel dock, a store, and a restaurant. Boats kept here run hard on open Delta water all season, and they take a beating from sun, water, and busy summer traffic. Sergio's Boat Spa is the Stockton repair shop those owners call when they want the damage gone and the boat back fast, owner operated, fully insured, and trusted with more than 2,000 boats since 2017. You don't need to haul the boat across town to learn what a repair costs. Text a photo of the damage with your slip or storage details and you'll get a free same-day quote with a firm price and timeline. We provide free dockside estimates at Paradise Point and, for many jobs, dockside service; larger fiberglass work comes to our South Lincoln Street shop a short drive away.
What open water marina boats deal with
Paradise Point opens straight onto the wider Delta, so the boats kept here run hard and sit in relentless sun. That combination shows up as faded, chalky gelcoat across broad hull sides; rub rail dings and corner gouges from busy weekend traffic; and the occasional impact crack. Boats kept in wet slips also pick up waterline staining and, over time, bottom growth and blistering. The good news is that almost all of it is correctable, and most of it is cheaper to fix early. A faded hull usually only needs oxidation removal, not paint. A small crack is a quick repair until water gets into the laminate. Catching it early is the difference between a cosmetic job and a structural one, and a photo text is all it takes to find out which you're dealing with.
Repairs, finishes, and lasting protection
We repair cracks, gouges, rub-rail dings, and impact damage; rebuild structural fiberglass; and colormatch gelcoat so repairs disappear into the hull. We reverse oxidation and chalking, buff and polish back the gloss, and for owners who want their finish to survive the Delta sun, we apply marine ceramic coating that resists UV, water spotting, and the early stages of oxidation far longer than wax. Whatever the job, you get the same honest read: we tell you whether your boat needs a true repair, a restoration, or just a detail, and we quote it per boat, never by the foot. We won't pad a job that doesn't need it.
Free dockside estimates at Paradise Point
Send a photo and your slip details to (209) 221-3781, and we'll arrange a free dockside look or a shop drop off depending on the work. Details, oxidation removal, ceramic coating, and many repairs can be done dockside; heavier structural fiberglass work is handled at our nearby Stockton shop. You'll have a firm number and timeline before anything starts, and updates the whole way through.
Communication is the difference
The marine industry's biggest failure is silence, boats dropped off and never heard about again. We built Sergio's Boat Spa around the opposite. You'll always know where your boat is and when it's done, the quote you're given is the price you pay, and we stand behind the work. That's why Paradise Point owners send their dock neighbors our way.
Per boat pricing and easy payment
At a big open-water marina like Paradise Point you'll find shops that quote by the foot, we don't. We price on what your boat actually needs, give you a firm number before any work begins, and stick to it. No per-foot formula, no padding, no surprise additions. Payment is whatever's easiest for you: card, cash, or Zelle. That transparency matters most on the jobs that could balloon, a repair that turns out bigger than it looked, say. With us, you hear about it and decide before anything changes, so the final bill is never a shock.
What to expect when you reach out
Send a photo and your slip details for a free same day quote. We tell you whether it's a dockside job or a shop job, give you a firm date, and keep you updated through the work. When it's finished, you get before and after photos and a boat that looks like nothing ever happened. Simple, honest, and on your schedule.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you give free dockside estimates at Paradise Point?
Yes. Send a photo and your slip for a free same-day quote, and we'll arrange a dockside look or shop drop-off depending on the job.
Can you protect my hull from the Delta sun out here?
Yes, oxidation removal plus a ceramic coating or wax sealant restores the gloss and protects the finish through the season and beyond. Ceramic lasts considerably longer than wax.
My hull is badly faded, is it too far gone?
Often not. If the gelcoat is sound, oxidation removal and polishing brings it back without the cost of a repaint. Send a photo and we'll tell you honestly.
How long do repairs take?
Most fiberglass repairs are 1–4 days, gelcoat restoration 1–2 days, and details a single visit. You get a firm date before we start.
Do you quote by the foot?
Never. Every boat is quoted on what it actually needs, so a clean, well-kept boat doesn't subsidize a neglected one of the same length.
Do I have to haul out to get service?
No, we come to your slip at Paradise Point for a free dockside estimate and handle many jobs right there, so you don't have to haul out.
Are you insured?
Fully insured for liability and for care, custody, and control of your boat, with a certificate available for the marina on request.
How do I pay?
Card, cash, or Zelle, your choice. You get a firm per-boat quote up front and pay exactly that.
What if the repair turns out bigger than it looked?
You hear about it first and decide before we change anything. No surprise charges land on the final bill.
