My "new to me" boat has a dirty bilge I need to clean up. Some place quoted me $800 to clean it-- 8 hours at $50 per hour x two "techs". Seriously?? There is some oil in the engine drip pan and the bilge water is blackish so it might have some oil also.
This seems like a "do it yourself" type cleaning job to me, but maybe I'm missing something. Is there something that will "eat" the oil so I can just discharge the water?
Also, what's is a good price per foot for a topside compound and wax? Mine has some oxidation.
