ANODE ZINC REPLACEMENT

Why is it so important to replace Anodes (also known as Zincs) on your boat?
 
Saltwater located close to marinas contain high levels of electrolysis which cause galvanic corrosion.  Anodes help prevent electrolysis damage by absorbing the electricity instead of your boat's underwater metal fixtures. 
 
The unprotected metals on your outdrives, metal rudders, propeller shafts, propellers, trim tabs and thru hull fittings will erode and damage these parts.
 
By replacing your boats Anodes every 6 - 12 months it will help maintain your boats integrity and avoid unnecessary, costly repairs and replacement of parts.
 
When you utilize our underwater inspection and maintenance services, it could help prevent the unnecessary early dry dock of your vessel, saving you potentially hundreds to thousands of dollars per year.

PROPELLER AND HULL CLEANING

What are the benefits of properly cleaned Propellers and Hulls?
 
On the Westcoast we have the most abundant sea life than anywhere else in the world.  Various marine life such as muscles, barnacles, tube worms and kelp like to adhere to your boats hull and propeller which can cause poor fuel economy and can lead to an overworked engine, causing more costly repairs.
 
We recommend having your boat inspected and cleaned every 6-12 months depending on the underwater growth and elecrolysis in your marina.
 
Delays in cleaning your hull can also lead to a significant amount of hard fouling and damage to hull paint.  This can affect the fuel consumption, speed and power of your vessle.  By doing regular, scheduled, low cost maintenance, can avoid high costly repairs and drydocking fees.
 
Our Hull cleaning services includes inspection and polishing.
