Green algae on boat bottom

Zee · 11-08-2004, 11:26 AM

I finally pulled the boat out of the water this weekend. All good things must come to an end. BUT, I now have a green slime on the bottom of my white boat. We have never had this problem in the three years we have had summer dockage. The first two years we were at Trexlers and this year we are at Pier 19. There must be a big difference with the nutrients in that part of the lake. Be that as it may, what can we use to clean the bottom? We tried orange cleaner and a stiff brush and a blue scotchbrite. Any other suggestions?
