Yes, but still needed some manual scrubbing, you have to use it regularly to keep the hull absolutely clean, I would say once every 2-3 months.

How sad to see Yarmouth now it is a marina not a harbour any more. I worked as a berthing master in the early two thousands but left when there were few visitors who knew how to tie up a boat or were even coming in on a boat they owned or cared about. What ever happened to real yachtsmen?
@Sailingshakti-Sportscruiser4 ай бұрын
There are a lot of Sports Cruisers their these days, I like to take Shakti as its a great Marina but more in Winter time as its so busy and lots of rafting in the summer time.

Not knowing Poole harbour at all, why are so many boats leaving at once. Are they just cruising in company or are they bunched up having been held up by tide, lock gates, bridges or whatever.
@Sailingshakti-Sportscruiser8 ай бұрын
Hi, the reason for it, there is an inner Marina called Cobb’s Quay with two lifting bridges, the bigger boats have to wait for hourly bridge lifts, you can in the height of summer have 30+ boats going out on the hour at each lift and the same returning after a days boating.
@kevinallwood27308 ай бұрын
@@Sailingshakti-Sportscruiser guess this is when dynamic positioning on IPS boats pays off. But no doubt this incumbrance is reflected in the Cobbs Quay mooring fees 🤣🤣
