How long must a boat be kept out of the water to kill any microscopic barnacles that might be forming? My 19' aluminium boat is kept in a tropical salt water tidal zone. I take the boat out of the water every 1-2 months for 1-2 weeks to kill barnacles. I'd like to get the boat back in the water as quickly as possible. How long does it take to kill barnacles?
Is there any spray or wash (that is not very toxic) that can speed up the process? Fresh water? Lemon juice or vinegar?
Thanks,
