Featured Detailer: Musselman Marine

At Marine Detail Supply Charleston, we’re proud to highlight professionals who truly care about the craft of marine detailing. This month, we’re featuring Musselman Marine, a Charleston-based business built on passion, experience, and a lifelong connection to the water.

A Passion That Started Early

“Musselman Marine started back in high school and grew into a focus on correcting, protecting, and maintaining high-end center consoles.”

That early start was fueled by growing up around boats and seeing firsthand how proper care makes a difference.

“What inspired me was growing up around boats and seeing firsthand from my dad how proper care keeps a boat looking its best and makes ownership easier. That passion turned into wanting to give other boat owners the same experience.”

Today, that same mindset carries through every correction and protection job.

Connected to the Water and the Charleston Community

“Growing up around the water makes working with boats and the Charleston community feel natural,” he says. “I love connecting and relating with clients who share that same passion.”

That shared appreciation for life on the water helps build trust and long-term relationships with customers throughout the Lowcountry.

Standout Projects with Personal Meaning

“I’ve been so blessed to work on so many amazing boats,” he explains, “but one standout set of projects was correcting and coating a family’s Dragonfly, Pathfinder, and Valhalla.”

What made the project especially meaningful was the relationship behind it.

“They’re a family who’ve supported me since my marina days,” making the experience just as rewarding personally as it was professionally.

Why Quality Products Matter

Along the way, one lesson stands out above the rest.

“One big lesson: quality products make maintenance way easier,” he says. “That’s why I purchase all my products at Marine Detail Supply of Charleston.”

Using proven products not only improves results during the detail but also helps boat owners maintain their investment long after the work is done.

Go-To Product Recommendation

When asked for a must-have product, the answer came easy.

“My go-to recommendation is Starke’s Salt Gone. It safely breaks down salt after a long day on the water, no matter what protection your boat has.”

For boats operating in saltwater environments, it’s an essential part of ongoing maintenance.

Proud to Support Local Professionals
