Chase at The Boatler in Fairhope, AL, recently completed a stunning Hull Pro application on a 37' Freeman, and the results speak for themselves. This high-performance catamaran now boasts a crystal-clear protective barrier that enhances speed, fuel efficiency, and overall durability. Unlike traditional bottom paint, Hull Pro preserves the vessel’s resale value while preventing hull blistering and osmosis. With a high-gloss mirror finish and long-term protection, this Freeman is now optimized for both performance and longevity on the water.

A SMARTER ALTERNATIVE TO BOTTOM PAINT

For boat owners looking to avoid the drawbacks of bottom paint, Hull Pro offers a clear and durable alternative. While traditional antifouling paints can degrade over time, requiring frequent maintenance and impacting resale value, Hull Pro provides long-term protection without altering the vessel’s original finish.

Chase at The Boatler stands by Hull Pro as an excellent solution for owners who want to maintain their boat’s aesthetics while benefiting from enhanced performance. This 37' Freeman is a prime example—coated with Hull Pro, it retains its factory gelcoat while gaining superior protection against water intrusion and environmental wear.

PERFORMANCE GAINS: MORE SPEED, LESS FUEL

One of the standout benefits of Hull Pro is its impact on vessel performance. On larger boats like this 37' Freeman, owners often see a 2-3 mph speed increase at cruise, with engines running at lower RPMs. This translates into improved fuel efficiency, with savings of up to 15% in some cases.

By creating an ultra-slick, hydrophobic surface, Hull Pro reduces drag, allowing the boat to glide through the water more efficiently. The result? Less strain on the engines, better handling, and a smoother ride—making Hull Pro a game-changer for performance-minded boaters.

THEY KEY TO A HIGH-GLOSS, MIRROR-LIKE FINISH

Achieving a flawless Hull Pro application starts with expert preparation. The Boatler follows a meticulous process to ensure the highest quality results. Before applying Hull Pro, the gelcoat is lightly scuffed with 600-grit sandpaper, creating the perfect surface for bonding. Then, the hull is thoroughly wiped clean with acetone to remove any contaminants.

This process enhances adhesion and helps create the signature high-gloss, mirror-like finish that Hull Pro is known for. Not only does this coating look incredible, but it also provides a long-lasting barrier against oxidation, staining, and water damage.
