That's what I've read, anyway. Never saw a boat blister in person.



I don't think I've seen a single sailboat hauled out in Charleston without
them. Our water is awful warm all summer and full of prehistoric critters
that bite like hell when cleaned out of the air conditioner strainers at
the dock. Any marina here is a massive ecosystem unto itself, dispite
everyone peeing over the side and dumping crap down the sink. The crabbing
under the dock is rated OUTSTANDING for Blue Crabs....yum...yum!
