antifouling by People Who Care

Traditionally, the underside of your boat doesn’t get the same love and care as the rest of the boat. But it matters just as much. A clean hull helps your boat run better, use less fuel, and stay in good shape for longer.

We offer antifouling Gold Coast boat owners trust, and we do it over 1,000 times a year. Every job is done to a high standard, so you know it’s right the first time.

Most boats need antifouling once a year. If you use your boat a lot, or keep it in the water full time, you may need it more often. Warm Gold Coast water speeds up marine growth, so regular antifouling keeps your hull clean and your boat running smoothly.

We use both hard and soft (ablative) antifoul paint. Hard antifould lasts longer and suits boats that move often. Soft antifoul wears away over time and suits boats that sit still for long periods. We can help you pick the right type for how you use your boat.

The cost of antifouling depends on a few things. These include the size of your boat, the state of the hull, and the type of paint used. We’ll give you a clear quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises.

Best of all, we do it all in one visit. Antifouling, hull cleaning, and other out-of-water jobs jobs are done together. That means less time out of the water, and less hassle for you.
