The latest weapon in the battle against the growth of algae on the hull of your ship.
The H2OBoatCare XP consists of an electronics box and a transducer. This transducer is placed in the water of the berth of your ship.
Together they create pulses with a high frequency. These pulses have a strong influence on the microscopic vacuüm bubbles which are caused by the vibrations. These vacuüm bubbles implode (cavitation at a microscopic level) and the forces that are released destroy the algae and the seeds of barnacles.
The result
A cleaner ship, less fuel consumption (In case of a polluted hull the savings can certainly rise up to at least 20%!), less toxins in the water because anti-fouling isn't necessary every year and it's not necessary to lift the ship every year for cleaning and new anti-fouling. The vibrations are not harmful to fish and amphibians. In fact harmfull parasites are also contested. So an environmentally friendly and sustainable method to keep the ship clean. Of course in the places where the vibrations cannot come there is a possibility some algae will occur. That is what we call the working of the shadow. But the ship stays as well as clean.
Because of serious layer on the screw, many ships do not planish anymore as the season progresses. The action of the H2OBoatCare XP also solves that problem.
Tests
The results speak for themselves. The tests were held on Mallorca and Denia in Spain. All tests prove that H2OBoatCareXP1 is doing a great job. So the sale of the product has been started.
At this picture a propeller of a ship is photographed that has been in seawater for seven months in Mallorca. This boat went in clean. After seven months, the propellers were completely covered with algae, barnacles and other aquatic organisms.
This propeller is cleaned by a diver and then we have the transducer installed on the bottom of the berth of the boat. From that moment, the transducer emits vibrations. The algae died and the barnacles were expelled.
After that, every six weeks photos were taken. After 7 months in the same water, the propeller was still clean.
Also places on the hull of the ship that we had cleaned appeared to be still clean after 7 months.
Cost saving!
We also did a test with a Sunseeker powerboat. This boat were in the water with no anti-fouling en had to be lifted an cleaned every two weeks, so that the boat could sail as fast as possible. Finally, that is where a speed boat is for. After 8 weeks, the boat is lifted out of the water to see the results. There was no question of algae and barnacles, only some tarnish of dirt particles that occur in the water.
