How to best prepare your fairing

The fairing season has started at Port Navy Service. But what is a fairing?

This is the annual maintenance of the hull of your boat. Whether it is a sailboat, a catamaran, a trimaran or a motor boat, it is necessary to ensure that your submarine stays clean in order to navigate in the best conditions.

During your fairing, you will have to get rid of the "fouling" with a high pressure washer. Fouling is the accumulation of small crustaceans and some algae under the waterline of your boat. They can clutter your saffron or propellers and, in the worst case, cause damage to your engine by plugging the water suction. This may also lead to additional fuel consumption costs. The accumulation of this fauna and flora can also slow you down during your navigation.

It is also an opportunity to redo your antifouling, change the anodes and practice the maintenance of the living works. You can call on the companies present on the port where to carry out your work yourself.

The passage on thefairing area, the best way to maintain your boat

If you want to careen your boat, we can offer you a passage, lasting a maximum of 3 days in our fairing area to environmental standards. that -ci welcomes owners wishing to pass the karcher on their hull. For all other work we recommend that you move your boat to a standard parking space in order to avoid, for example, damaging your new paint near other Karcher users.

An environmentally friendly system

When you pass the karcher on the fairing area, the waters loaded with antifouling particles are evacuated to the treatment plant, equipped with decanters and dewatering dewaterers to retain the pollutants generated. This plant is a device intended to trap pollutants fixed on suspended matter (SES) contained in polluted waters from fairing and boat maintenance areas.
