Full length raw video. Extreme Sailboat hull cleaning and anode replacement. GoPro Hero 5. 

Thank you. Thanks for watching.

There's only 1 of me but thanks.😎

The rate for hull service varies depending on where you are located. I recommend monthly service only, and if a potential client wants a hull cleaned that has not been serviced in a number of months, then multiply the monthly rate by the number of months since last service, charge accordingly. To be able to provide the highest level of service and to stay on top of any corrosion issues and fix them before they cause damage to underwater metals, it is important to go under monthly. Two or more months of neglect may lead to costly damage and repairs. Also be sure to document everything each time you service a vessel. The diver and boat owner should know exactly how long each anode lasts, when the anodes were last replaced, the condition of the antifouling, if there is any active or past corrosion, are all bonding wires connected and in good condition, etc..

I see this is at least 1 yr old, but I figured I'd comment as well. I'm thinking about a boat cleaning business as well in the Tampa/clearwater area. Open water certified as well. Any tips? Pointers?

Biological fouling on boat hulls is hard to remove, both above water and underwater.

Sunmight is good sandpaper. You can also use sanding screens and coarse grit belt sander sandpaper. I love shiny metal!

What grit was it?

GoPro Chesty

It's hard for me too.

Yes. The barnacles travel by attaching to whales.

You should look up the definition of a professional diver

@@StephenAlexanderVideos oh, why is that?

@@garlandgarrett6332 Anyone paid for their diving services is considered a professional.

@@StephenAlexanderVideos no, they are considered commercial, and they should be following subchapter T .What are your qualifications?

I truly can't tell if you're actually this dumb commercial diving is also professional diving either way if you're paid you're considered a professional literally google "What is a professional diver" it'll save you a lot of embarrassment in the future. Maybe you're too young to know that but you should have figured it out at least an hour ago when I told you to look it up but now you're just embarrassing yourself. It is entertaining for sure don't get me wrong life would be very boring without dumb people.
