<p>The invention is an ecological friendly apparatus and method for preventing the fouling of the submerged part of a boat hull by creating a pocket of still and dark water around the boat hull. The darkness prevents algae, seaweed, and other types of sea life, such as plankton, from growing and developing by depriving them of the light needed for their existence. The absence of algae, light, and current caused by the present invention eliminates the food necessary for barnacles and mussels to survive, so barnacles and mussels are also prevented from fouling the boat hull.</p> |
