How long in the water?
Feejer,
Had a glass boat in the water 10 days, 4 different trips, on Pond Island (just accross the bridge east of Pirate"s Cove) with a build up of very tiny barnacles on the hull and out-drive and especially the zincs. When back on the trailer for a day or so, a garden hose with brush took them off the hull. A little gritty from the tiny shells that formed so I learned to rinse the brush with the hose, not back in the wash bucket. No real problem with scum or discoloration.
At Harker's for 5-6 days on many different trips--170 CC Triumph-- nothing. No barnacles. Had bathtub ring from water in marina when wind kept surface "stuff" pushed in. There are critters in the water as I do get barnacle growth on my zincs. Again, minimal that a bristle brush and water hose knocked right off.
