Antifoul is the most important coating below your waterline. The right system on a properly prepared hull keeps weed and barnacles off, protects performance and stretches the time between haul-outs. We apply leading systems from International, Altex, Pettit and SeaHawk, matched to your boat, how you use it and where it's moored.

What you get

  • Keeps your hull fast and fuel-efficient
  • Reduces weed, barnacles and slime
  • Protects everything below the waterline
  • More time between haul-outs

Common signs you need this

  • Growth coming back soon after your last antifoul
  • Lower cruising speed or rising fuel bills
  • Patchy or failing coating along the waterline
  • Not sure which antifoul suits your hull

How we do it

  1. Step 1

    Inspection & prep

    We inspect, wash and sand the hull, then remove or feather any failing coating.

  2. Step 2

    System specification

    We match the antifoul system to your boat, your marina conditions and how you use it.

  3. Step 3

    Application

    Coats applied to manufacturer specification, with extra build on leading edges and the waterline.

Ideal if…

  • Your boat is due for haul-out
  • You want lost performance back
  • You're moving to a higher-performance antifoul
  • You want one trip up the slip, done properly

Great job on my Markline 900. The guys were friendly and worked hard… Did a nice finish on my antifoul and prop-speed (prop & trim tabs). Will be using them again! … Excellent communication and organisational skills from both Matt and Harry, the owners. The staff were also great and kept us up to date on progress.

Was going to do the anti foul and prop speed myself, but came down sick just at the scheduled haul out, got a speedy response to my email from Harry, and the guys cracked into it the next day, job looks good and they were happy to use the paint I had purchased.
