Following on from a recent post on Palma Yacht Crew regarding full closed tents in STP for antifouling or sanding the hull. see below.
¨Good morning.
Due to the repeated problems with netting, despite multiple warnings and attempts by STP to ensure it is carried out correctly, and the resulting problems and complaints, starting next season (01/09/25), any antifouling sanding and/or application with spray systems, even low-pressure, is strictly prohibited without a plastic cover that completely isolates the work.
Covering with tarps, nets, or similar materials is prohibited. Plastic covers cannot be removed until all paint and other debris have been removed.
Best Regards. STP
Maybe now is the time for you to think about Sonihull Ultrasonic Anti-Fouling
MAR Engineering are official agent in Spain for Sonihull. We supply and install, not only on hulls but on pipework to keep pipes free from barnacles. It can be used on heat exchangers, fuel tanks, drive legs and more applications.
Originally designed for keeping hulls clean from marine growth and reducing labour costs of antifouling, by extending the time between antifoul applications you can reduce costs and now with the extra cost of a tent in STP.
Sonihull allows divers to quickly and easily give your hull quick clean once a year and save on a haul out just to clean or antifoul.
With fast any easy installation (no holes)!
