Coppercoat's high performance has made it particularly popular in racing circles. From national teams (such as Sally Dugdale, UK Yeoman Champion) to racing drivers such as Nautical UK's Jim Barham who is a long-time winter racing champion at the Royal Southampton Yacht Club, Olympic medal winners such as Keith Musto, and more and more captains becoming Coppercoat followers. For example the 72nd Oystercatcher which was a winner at the Rolex Antigua Sail Week (Performance Cruising Class 1) uses Coppercoat. The owner of this particular boat, which cost more than $3 million, built it to weigh several tons less than the conventional 73rd Oyster and concluded that the Coppercoat gave it a significant performance advantage.
Applications of antifouling webbing
Unrivaled longevity
This non-removable coating provides protection against fouling for many years, typically a decade or more per treatment.
Saves time & money
Eliminates the need to lift or dry the boat for regular applications of conventional anti-fouling agents.
Well proven
Supplied on more than 75,000 ships worldwide. Used and trusted by the best known shipbuilders.
Hard Wear
The extremely hard matrix allows for repeated sanding with virtually no loss of thickness or life. Periodic scrubbing is recommended.
Increase Speed & Efficiency
The non-absorbent epoxy coating produces less friction than conventional abrasive cleaners. Coppercoat's hydrodynamically efficient surface provides greater hull speed and greater fuel efficiency.
High strength formula
Newly optimized for use on superyachts, our highest strength formula is now available in larger pack sizes for airless spray application.
