Thought you guys might be interested in this technology - they seem to
have sold it to some tough customers.

The end of bottom painting? Experience with "Boat Hull Shield"? ChlorFree?
 
Setting aside the ChlorFree- Aqua-Smart Hull "ionization" systems;
1) what about experiences (Pros & Cons) with Boat Hull Shields? They
appear innovative & simple to protect a hull & its motor, prop,
centerboard, etc. Any sucessfull installations on East Coast-- or
mostly in San Diego, Calif., & on lakes?? We'd like to see some & talk
with satisfied users!
Also:
2) any technical Pros/ Cons the ChlorFree "ionization" system?
Would the amounts & fate of the Cu++ ions added to the water
circulating around the hull be much different than std. copper hard
paint (ex-Trinidad)
that lasts at least 2 years? Any comments affects on sealife- esp.
oysters, clams, benthic critters, etc?
Good sailing, John & Cindy R. Virginia

How do you remove the boat from the enclosure without releasing the
chemical? Haul it out with slings? From the photos, I don't see any other
way, and releasing the chemical every time the boat is taken out doesn't
seem practical or environmentally friendly.

They can't be too tough if they've overlooked the grammatical errors in
the marketing material.
