Boat Bottom Barnacles Mid-Season Removal In-Water vs Haul Out

THE BARNACLES GOT US and we needed to do a mid-season bottom cleaning & removal on our boat! Although we painted the boat bottom in the spring, we got hit with barnacles on our trim tabs, running gear & props this year due to lack of rain early in the season. The lack of rain makes the brackish water where we boat more salty causing barnacle growth. You gotta get them off because it causes a lot of drag, slowing down the boat's performance. Removing them involved some in-water scraping that we were able to do as opposed to hauling out the boat. A big job on our Sea Ray 410 Sundancer but we got it done!

My Boat Life is a recreational boating lifestyle channel where we share a little bit of our boat life. We like to focus on family boating & boating with kids (you'll see our boat girls quite a bit) along with some boating know-how and best practices for recreational boating and gear. We are not liveaboards or vloggers - just your average weekend boaters making the most out of each season on the water. We also work in the marine industry so you'll see off-season boat show highlights and other new trends in boating. See more on our boating lifestyle sites MyBoatLife.com and BoaterKids.com.
