Because of the warmer water, barnacles grow very fast and the boat bottom must be cleaned every 2 to 4 weeks. We hired some local workers with an air compressor. They use plastic scrapers and plastic pads to remove the barnacles and other growth. Three people worked for over one hour with the grandpa in the boat using 2 anchors and the outboard to keep the air hoses within reach of the divers. It appeared to be a 3 generation operation with middle aged Ernesto in charge.
