Most full service marinas I have been at do not allow outside contractors if it is a service they can provide. Some that do make sure they get a percentage of the fee. Warranty repairs or work done by the owner usually is permitted but I have even seen marinas that won't allow the owner to even paint the bottom of the boat. I would check the contract language that those boat owners have with their marinas. Some are available online.

As far as those not at marinas, and there are plenty, I think it's a good idea if the prices are reasonable. Since you won't have the overhead of a marina your prices should be a minimum of 20% less.

Good luck in your venture.
