IN WATER CUTLESS STRUT BEARING REPLACEMENT, we can replace your Strut bearings while your boat remains in the water without any cutting, or removal of anything but the propeller
HULL CLEANING, This not only saves you fuel but Up to 70% of a ships propulsive energy is needed to overcome hydrodynamic resistance (friction), keeping the hull and propeller surfaces smooth will minimize waste and improve the speed and/or distance to be gained from burning a tank of fuel. The hull of a boat left in water over time accumulates all kinds of algae, marine life, and barnacles that attach to the bottom of the boat. This growth increases the fuel consumption of the vessel, by causing frictional resistance and increasing the weight of the vessel significantly which causes strain on the engines. Fuel economy is undoubtedly one of the major reasons for hull upkeep, a lightly coated hull of a boat could increase its fuel costs by up to 15-20%
ZINCS, Any time you have two different metals that are physically or electrically connected and immersed in seawater, they become a battery. The electrons that make up that current are supplied by one of the metals giving up bits of itself-in the form of metal ions-to the seawater. This is called galvanic corrosion and, left unchecked, it quickly destroys underwater metals. The way we counteract galvanic corrosion is to add a third metal into the circuit, one that is quicker than the other two to give up its electrons. When a zinc is gone, the metal component it was installed to protect begins to dissolve-guaranteed.
