The ultimate protection for your boat
ProtecMarineNC offers a tailor-made protection that keeps your boat’s hull perfectly clean while eliminating the need for costly, polluting and time-consuming annual hull cleaning. Thanks to its UV-resistant technology and its unique water extraction system between the hull and the cover, no microorganism can grow, ensuring a spotless hull, season after season.
Designed for regular use, our solution fits around the hull and can be automatically deployed or removed via your smartphone. It stays in place while sailing and adapts to all types of boats (motorboats, keelboats, etc.).
Easy to use, ProtecMarineNC combines comfort and efficiency, whether you sail often or your boat stays at the dock.

Why protect your hull?
Antifouling paints have many drawbacks:
Limited lifespan: They must be reapplied regularly.
High cost: Effective products are expensive.
Residual fouling: Even with good paint, periodic cleaning is needed.
Toxicity: Contain harmful solvents and additives.
Pollution: Release biocides into the sea, harming marine life. According to Econav, 1 m² of hull pollutes 10,000 m³ of water.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Which boats are compatible?
Our protection suits all types of boats (motorboats, keelboats, monohulls, catamarans, etc.). Each cover is made to measure. If your boat has been modified, we can adapt during manufacturing.
How do I control my protection?
Simply via your smartphone. Once connected through Wi-Fi, log in and deploy your protection with a single tap.
Do I need to clean the protection?
No. That’s the beauty of it: it stays in place at the marina. It’s designed to withstand the gradual development of marine organisms on its outer surface.
What are the environmental benefits?
You’ll no longer need antifouling paints. The cover creates a dark, dry environment between your hull and the protection, preventing marine growth.
Additionally, the outer surface becomes a refuge for small marine life, helping biodiversity in ports.
According to Econav, 1 m² of hull contains 15 g of biocide, and 1 g pollutes 10,000 m³ of water, meaning a 6 m boat pollutes as much as 56 Olympic pools.
What are the economic benefits?
According to FNPPSF, 1–2 mm of marine growth causes a 15% speed loss.
Up to 150 kg of biomass per m² can accumulate in six months (IMO).
A fouled hull increases fuel use by 40–50% (IMO).
With ProtecMarineNC, you’ll reduce maintenance costs and extend service intervals.
