BOAT MAINTENANCE - ANTIFOULING

Antifouling relates to the process of protecting boats from sea creatures attaching themselves to the hull and causing damage. Heavy fouling not only looks unsightly but it also makes your boat slow, less responsive, and to operate with less fuel efficiency.

If a vessel has to remain in the water for most of the year there is no other solution than to have the hull properly protected. The onset of osmosis and other hull deteriorating problems could lead to a very large financial burden that could be very easily avoided.

We recommend that you antifoul your boat annually as this helps to reduce the chance of osmosis.

Our experienced team can provide this service at a very competitive price and have all the tools and equipment necessary to correct any other problems that may become apparent once the vessel has been lifted out of the water.

We provide a thorough and professional, yet cost effective antifouling service to ensure your vessel performs to it's maximum capacity and with better fuel efficiency.

While your vessel is out of the water it creates an opportunity for have a good visual inspection to check that everything underwater is in good safe working order, and to check there aren’t any major maintenance concerns such as serious osmosis.
