ANTIFOULING

High levels of growth can effect the performance and fuel efficiency of your boat. Therefore, itβs important to keep on top of your antifouling maintenance. Depending on your boatβs usage and storage, will depend on your antifouling application. Fremantle Shipwrights will examine the best approach to applying the correct anti-foul product to your boat.

PROPSPEED
Propspeed is an antifouling coating system that prevents marine growth from bonding to the propellers or metal services at the bottom of your boat. A common problem, the marine growth on your propellers can cause resistance that results in a loss of performance and a greater fuel consumption. Propspeed applicaiton allows the propellers to be at their maximum performance, resisting marine growth and keeping fuel consumption to a minimum.
