The ‘Miss Christin’, a 65’ passenger ferry operated by the Potomac Riverboat Company was coated with HullSpeed 3000-Series in early February. The Alexandria based boat was hauled for its regular coast guard inspection and will be receiving routine maintenance including new bottom paint.
The Potomac Riverboat Co. which operates more than eight vessels was excited to try a new innovative bottom paint that could potentially be a simple cost saving tool. A HullSpeed application over their traditional barrier coat could provide significant improvements in vessel efficiency and hull maintenance.
