ABSTRACT:
A boat hull or part thereof produced by applying layers of curable resin to a mould or former and curing the resin in the mould or on the former. A layer of a non-biocidal antifouling material is applied to the mould, or to the outermost layer of resin if using a former, so that the non-biocidal antifouling material forms the outermost layer of the boat hull. A non-biocidal antifouling material used as the outermost underwater surface of a boat hull has fine grooves extending in the longitudinal direction of the hull. The grooves can be formed by applying the non-biocidal antifouling material to a grooved mould when using the process described above. Alternatively the underwater surface of a boat hull can be clad with a grooved non-biocidal antifouling material.
