What is Boat Anti-fouling?
Boat antifouling is a special type of paint used on the bottom of boats to protect them from micro-organisms that can damage the surface of the boat over time. These micro-organisms, such as barnacles and algae, can attach themselves to the bottom of the boat and cause drag while moving, which can decrease the overall performance of the boat. The antifouling paint creates a protective barrier between the micro-organisms and the surface of the boat, preventing them from attaching and causing damage. The process of applying the antifouling paint is known as antifouling, and it is usually done every 12-18 months, depending on the location and the amount of marine life present in the area. Some places with high flow tidal areas may need antifouling to be done more frequently. Additionally, antifouling can be applied to different types of boats, such as fibreglass and timber boats.
