Antifouling
Maintaining a good antifoul coating on the hull of your boat is a necessary part of annual maintenance.
Many people ask "why should I antifoul every year?". If you're boat remains in the water for more than a week at a time, then you require antifouling. Without antifouling your hull will become a breeding ground for all types of marine life, weeds, barnacles and more. Keeping your hull clean increases the efficiency and performance of your engine and avoids decreased maneuverability, even at slow speeds.
At Hulls Complete Boating Services Sydney, we pick up and deliver to the slip. Many of our customers have been having their boats antifouled with us since the creation of our company, and we value that loyalty. Where other companies may use alternate grade paints, we only offer the premium antifoul paint to ensure your boat has the best protection possible. Our standards are high and this is the reason the majority of our work is repeat business.
We apply 2 coats of antifoul on the hull, running gear and sterndrives, and 3 coats on the waterline. We also replace anodes as needed and all at an affordable cost to you. Due to the fact we do not own the slips we work from, we can offer you the best prices in Sydney. By doing this our customers do not incur the heavy premiums passed on by slip owners whose overheads are factored into their invoices.
