"Bruce In Bangkok" wrote in message ... Has anyone tried any of the anti-fouling schemes intended for propellers, and if so what was your experience? The question comes about because I just had to dive on my prop and clean it. When I got down there I discovered a mass of "clams" as big as a bushel basket. Took two days to scrape them all off. True, for one reason or another, the boat hasn't moved in the better part of a year but still I don't believe I have ever seen as much growth. Must be either global warming or high CO2 content :-) In any event, it does make one think "there must be a better way". Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) I'd go with Vic's suggestion for extended periods or areas with warm water like Thailand ;-) Might hang a tag on the engine intake seacock to remind you to remove the covering before getting, or attemping to get, underway. |
