    There is no doubt

    The "A" number one hull cleaner - always has been, always will be, is *elbow grease*.

    Hull Cleaning

    I have a 24 footer in Oceanside, Ca harbor and I pay $39.00 a month. Most of San Diego is $1.05 to $1.50 a foot. They also clean my outdrive for that price. I would clean it myself if the water wasn't contaminated. You see liveaboards don't always use the head or close the valve, plus the runoff is bad. If you don't want to dive in it don't wash it down the gutter.

    I do not think that I made myself clear. What I am looking for is something that can clean a hull underwater. I want to save myself some hual-out cost. I know some live-aboards who would like to save a few bucks also. any help, THANKS

    Check out the Mar-Vel catalog. You can order a catalog from them at http://www.mar-vel.com/. They have hull cleaners in their catalog. Or you could hire a diver to do the cleaning for you!! ages
