Hull & Dock Cleaning
Anclote Diving provides reliable and insured hull and dock cleaning within Northern Pinellas county and Pasco county. Hull services are based off a desire to provide quality under the water upkeep to both small and large vessels.
Boat bottom cleanings are completed with the utmost care to safely remove as little ablative paint as possible while still removing all forms of marine growth.
Anclote Diving offers cavitation cleanings for heavily foulded hulls and docks. Using a Caviblaster, fouling is removed by a heavy stream of imploding bubbles. This stream removals all growth while not harming ablative paints.
Anclote Diving provides both one time cleanings and cyclical cleanings.
Why remove barnacles?
Even light growth on a boat hull can keep Powerboats from getting on a plane. Mild amounts of barnacles on a sailboat can keep the boat from being able to point and steer straight. Fouling of the hull can also cause damage to your hulls barrier coat, allowing water to slowly wick into fiberglass hulls creating blisters and wreaking havoc. Barnacles growing over raw water intakes can inhibit water flow, leading your engine to overheat. Fouling of still functional zincs can lead to electrolysis, ruining propellers and thru hulls. A common cause of boats sinking is damaged thru hulls due to electrolysis.
