I recently purchased a 25' CD which has been out of the water for about 2 years. There are hard, dried barnacles right below the waterline, on the hull and on the outboard motor. Don't laugh, I knew this was going to be a challenge. Can you provide any help on the best approach (easiest?) to remove these foul critters. The goal is to get the boat launched by 5/1/99. Do I need to take a leave of absence from my job to get this done in time?
Happy Thanksgiving!

Use some "MaryKate On/Off" hull cleaner available at most suppliers.Jenny Super wrote: I recently purchased a 25' CD which has been out of the water for about 2 years.
