Save On Fuel, And Improve Performance.
Fouling causes drag – drag reduces speed. Therefore, more fuel or energy is needed to drive the boat through the water to maintain the same speed.
WITH antifouling, you will get massive savings on fuel and faster speeds on sailing boats.
Antifouling is the most common (and most important) painting job carried out by boat owners. It is vital to protect your boat using antifouling paint, as once fouling has a hold on your hull it will rapidly colonise the surface, making it difficult to remove.
Applying an antifouling paint will prevent the attachment of fouling organisms, such as barnacles, weeds and slime, to your boat’s hull – a fouled hull can cause serious problems.
Prevention is much better than cure.
Of course, it is hard to imagine that today’s boats are operating without antifouling, but on the other hand condition of this protective coating plays a vital role in reducing fuel consumption on boats hence why you should be looking at antifouling, as a minimum, twice a year.
We here at Royal Phuket Marina have a special offer on haulouts so you can make sure your hull is clean and help reduce fuel costs and improve performance.
