Thought I would show you the state of the bottom of my boat, only been in since April but I knew it needed antifouling but this is the first chance to get her out. Wondered why she was getting slow! Dave

I go down at lowtide every month to scrape the bottom of mine with a wooden spatula, i'm amazed everytime how quick it comes back.
When you get rid of that lot it may save you a few bob in fuel
