Special Care for Moored Boats
•
Whether moored in saltwater or freshwater, your boat will collect marine growth on its hull bottom.
•
This will detract from your boat’s beauty, greatly affect its performance, and may damage the gel coat.
There are two ways to slow marine growth:
1. Periodically haul your boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle brush and a solution of soap
and water.
2. Occasionally reapply the anti-fouling paint on your hull bottom. How often your hull needs new anti-fouling
paint depends on many factors. Ask your selling dealer or local marina for advice.
Sacrificial Anode (Zinc)
Your boat is equipped with a sacrificial anode (zinc) to pro-
tect underwater metal parts from excessive deterioration.
Check the zinc regularly and replace it if it has deteriorated
more than 70%.
Many factors affect the rate at which the zinc deteriorates,
including:
•
Water temperature
•
Salinity
•
Water pollution
•
Stray electrical current
Stray electrical current from your boat, another boat, or the
dock may cause complete deterioration of the zinc in just a
few weeks. If there is rapid zinc deterioration, measure the
electrolytic corrosion around your boat with a corrosion
test meter.
Boats Without Bottom Paint:
•
To help seal the hull bottom and reduce the chance of gel coat blistering while your boat is
moored, apply an epoxy barrier coating.
•
The barrier coating should be covered with several coats of anti-fouling paint.
•
Many states regulate the chemical content of bottom paints in order to meet environmental
standards. Check with your local dealer about recommended bottom paints, and about the
laws in effect in your area.
NOTI CE
•
Do NOT paint between the zinc and the metal surface it contacts and do NOT paint over
the zinc.
•
If the zinc is NOT bonded correctly, it will NOT provide protection.
