Botton Painting
The bottom of a vessel, usually submerged in saltwater, is vulnerable to sea organisms, including acorn barnacles, zebra mussels, and microscopic bacteria that can cause hull drag, higher fuel costs and repair costs associated with the hull drag.
The correct yacht bottom painting treatment increases the longevity and performance of the vessel. The key ingredients in antifouling bottom paints include copper, biocides, algaecides, Teflon, vinyl, and proprietary two-part bottom coatings that create a hard, slippery biofilm that prevents organisms from attaching the hull.
