Default Never Clean Or Paint Your Bottom Again

I have a few Armored Hull Bottom Liners For Sale:

1. 27'
2. 30'
3. 35'

These things are incredible! Fresh or salt water - Zincs now last for over a year in some cases - No torn bellows due to muscles growing on them - No more electrolysis - Keep your boat like new for resale

They are able to be shipped.

Hi,

They cost 100 bucks per foot includes everything except longer distance shipping.

Long distance shipping to east coast or there about could be an additional 100 - 200. I don't mark it up or anything. Whatever the shipping cost me is what i charge and ONLY what I would charge.

Hello Jim,

No question is stupid if you don't know the answer -

I posted some pics. It's just like the garage for your car. You let the gate down when you want to drive the boat out of the bag.

Once in the bag, you put the gate back up. Works on self sustained air.

It moors to your dock; not your boat. So there is no safety hazzard etc.

I hope the pics work - These things also keep the green hair off your boat on lakes, rivers etc.

I recomend leaving the out boards "down" in the water and they work very well to keep all those bravos and volvos like brand new. Decals typically stay on forever and you can read them!!

Default Sorry to blab...

The material is absolutely amazing! A lot of work and experiement has gone into this. Certainly more than meets the eye.

You will get away with cleaning it only twice per year even in areas where marine growth is well fed and active.

I always recomend cleaning it 3 times per year.

If you own a bravo III in salt, you know how bad they get. I love these things. Swear by them.

They're also eco friendly.

And say goodbye to muscles and barnacles growing in your strainers and clogging up cooling systems etc.. When compared to bottom paint, it's a no-brainer to me.

What you save with the Armored Hull

• Diver monthly fee to clean (35-55 per month) $420 -$700 yr
• Cost for Haul out fee’s due to growth $250 year +
• Cost of Basic bottom paint 30’ $500
• Cost of Out drive anti-fouling per Out drive $300 (If no other problems are found, very rare)
• Cost of U Joint bellows replacement $450 per out drive
• (Growth causes more frequent need to change U Joint Bellows -Mussels , Barnacles live there-- plus a diver can’t clean these)
• Cost of Zincs - 2 extra sets per year @ $125 each $250 extra per out drive (plus trim tab zincs, swim platform etc.$$)


• Maximize your resale value when you use in an Armored Hull Boat shield.
Your boat will look like it never spent a day in the water.

• Eliminate Bottom Painting at an average cost of $500 for a 26' boat every 2 years.
Zinc lasts 3 times longer with an Armored Hull Boat Shield.
Zinc replacement is dropped by 70 percent at an average cost of $400 for a 26' boat every year left in the salt water.

• Eliminate Out drive damage

• Eliminate monthly diver fees at an average cost of $500 per year.

• Cut fuel costs!
A dirty hull increases fuel costs.
After 5 days growth begins and so does increased drag.
Growth causes friction which increases fuel costs up to 50 percent at nearly $4 per gallon.
More drag more fuel. Eliminate drag forever and save hundreds of dollars per year

• Overheating problems $ due to clogged mussels and barnacles are eliminated.

• Unprotected out drives suffer severely. When hydraulic cylinders get even one barnacle it can rip through seals and that can be a big bill.
