Boat bottoms need to be scheduled & cleaned more often to avoid excessive marine growth and increase the boat’s performance. South Florida is a breeding ground for underwater hull growth. A cleaning schedule of every four weeks is recommended for most vessels. We provide our underwater maintenance program to the needs of each individual boat hull. The condition of the anti-fouling paint is also a major factor in cleaning frequency.
If a vessel does not have bottom paint and is kept in the water, the barnacles and oysters that accumulates on a boat bottom with poor or no anti-fouling paint happens in a very short amount if time. This cleaning requires scraping and cavitation cleaning to be removed. The boat’s performance is compromised due to heavy fouling of the hull, propellers & engine water intakes; causing overheating engines, slower speed & poor fuel economy. Boats kept in the water with no anti-fouling paint must be cleaned every two weeks or more.
Barnacle King takes pride in offering the local boating community a hardworking & trustworthy service provider. We strive to fulfill that commitment to our customers on every service.
