Why Should You Protect and Care For Your Boat?
Why Should You Protect and Care for Your Boat?
Polishing
An efficient polishing job will extend the life of your vessels gel coat and surface, prolonging that shiny, glassy and clean aesthetic. Polishing corrects imperfections and protects your boat from oxidation and UV radiation damage, which it is exposed to most of the time the harsh environment.
Antifoul
Anti-foul prevents barnacles and marine growth beneath your boat. Without this care, your boat will have a build up of marine bacteria, which can lead to your vessel being slowed down, therefore your fuel consumption is increased. It also helps improve the overall aesthetics of your boat, making it look neat, new and functional.
Wax
Waxing your vessels surface prevents harsh UV ray damages, whilst also avoiding permanently abrading or staining the gel coat.
Engine Service
As your engine gives you the power you need to move your boat, we would say it's very important to maintain! A frequent engine service is vital to keeping your boat's systems running smooth and operative. A service will also help prolong the life of your engine.
Copper Coat
Copper Coat is similar to anti-foul, yet more effective and efficient. Copper Coat guards the boat's hull from fouling, leading to lower marine growth and remains effective for an increased amount of time. A dirty hull can increase drag and reduce fuel efficiency, which is why you need to be protecting it!
Wash and Clean
After long exposure to the elements and harsh environments of the marine world, your boat's surfaces can eventually start to degrade, discolour and even grow mould and moss on top of the gel coat. A regular wash and scrub after days out on the water, or after a prolonged period of time, can prevent dirt and grime build up, keeping your boat sparkly and protected.
