How does Barnaclean Work?

The concept is simple, yet sophisticated in terms of its marine engineering application! Barnaclean utilizes a compact microprocessor control unit in conjunction with strategically positioned sonic resonators which are secured to the inside of your hull (no through-hull fittings necessary!). The number of required resonators will vary according to the size of your boat, with each covering a ten-foot diameter. When the resonators are activated by the control unit, two very interesting results occur: First, the vibration or resonance appears to the barnacle like an unwanted marine preditor, thereby sending a red-banner warning. Second, this resonance creates a micro-thin layer of rapidly-moving water which acts to blanket the hull and running gear, hence making it difficult for fouling organisms and algae to attach. Best of all, Barnaclean performs its job automatically without any toxic chemical action which could harm or endanger the marine environment! What are the operational recomme
