Reference quotes

We have tried many anti-fouling products in the past with minimal success but the SaƒeBoatSkin® actually did what it was designed to do. It also provided additional speed which was a wonderful bonus".

Our experience is that, under identical conditions, our boat engines show a 6-8% improvement in rotations per minute, this is a good improvement. We expect with further experience (and perhaps applying SaƒeBoatSkin® at other parts of the boat to reach even further improvements).

We just got back from Firebird Raceway in Phoenix Arizona after running the World Finals of Dragboat racing. We applied your SaƒeSpeedSkin® to the bottom our world record holding Pro Gas Flatbottom". "What a difference it made in our speeds. At the 1/8mile we had picked up almost 3 mph. We usually run 139-140mph, but we now were running 142-143mph. At the finish line we had picked up the same 2-3 mph. Needless to say, we were very impressed with SaƒeSpeedSkin®. We also applied SaƒeSpeedSkin® to the inside of the boat and all of the aluminium. If you have ever been to Phoenix, you know how harsh the water is. The ease with which the boat cleaned up was phenomenal".

"Thank you for sending your Product for my use on my Olympic Canoe. I believe that the Product HAS MADE A DIFFERENCE. Further testing will tell more... I am excited. Yes. Even if the product produces only 2 inches more glide per stroke... there are 140 strokes in a race... approximately... that equates to 280 inches or 23 feet! That is the difference between 1st and last in many RACES!!!!!!"

Initially I was very wary of the Marine Glide product, but since we have applied it to my 25-foot Mustang I have been pleasantly surprised. It was easy and clean to apply and SaƒeBoatSkin®  keeps the boat free from marine life and it goes faster through the water, helping to keep my fuel costs down.

This is a letter of thanks for the opportunity to use your product SaƒeSpeedSkin® , on my skiff at the Queensland state titles in may, The application was easy, our expectation to finish but from the first race we noticed the boat was faster through the water, this built our confidence and our over-all result was 3rd out of eight in our division, a place better than we expected, we were very pleased considering we only finished 3 out of 5 races. We will be using your product in future events.

 I am a pro tournament pro bass angler for stessl boats, evinrude outboards and trakka clothing. I also share my knowledge and experience in all aspects of fishing and boating at certain boat and tackle shows and charity events in south east Queensland. I've also appeared on channel 10 and in the gold coast bulletin for Paul Burts fishing report.

 My boat is a 5.2m stessl bass boss twin console with a 135hp evinrude fitch outboard, the on water weight is approximately 1000kg.Running a 19 pitch sst (standard) prop in fresh water top speed was 50mph@ 5000rpm with no more than 1/4 trim, Now after applying marineglide SaƒeBoatSkin®  have picked up to full trim due to increased hull lift with less drag.Top speed now is 52-54mph@ 5600rpm.

 Ride characteristics of the boat has totally changed, it has turned boating on fresh water into like driving on salt. I am so happy to use and endorse this product, the more speed we get the more fishing time, this is very important for pro tourney's as we compete in timed sessions.

 SaƒeBoatSkin® has improved hull lift there for improved rpm which will allow me to run a bigger prop improving speed again, using SaƒeBoatSkin®  is a win win situation no matter what your boat.

 Thanks for the opportunity to test your safe skin product.

For the the wet skiing and snowboarding conditions of the spring time. I find  SaƒeSpeedSkin®  to be at its most optimum.  For the mild conditions of winter. -5  --0 degree C, your product still glides very well.  But for the super cold conditions of -15 and colder, SaƒeSpeedSkin®  (like all other non cold conditioned waxes), starts to slow down a bit.

Obviously SaƒeSpeedSkin®  is for the water. So I am not so surprised it works well on snow. But I am surprised at how well it does work on frozen water. Ice style conditions were the snow will often be different speeds depending on altitude. The SaƒeSpeedSkin®  seems to keep the board at a constant rapid glide.

For an all mountain good ski glide, you have a great product. For racing you would need to maybe add some fluorination of some kind.

But mostly I am very impressed with the smooth, consistent Glide.  

All together I think you have a good product for speed.

…… “ SaƒeBoatSkin® has frightened me somewhat last week. I had not been sailing for a week and a half and the hull of boat, which you treated with SaƒeBoatSkin® for me, was covered with algae!  However…when the boat started sailing the algae disappeared again like snow in the sun…..”.

... My QuickSilver Speedboat has never ever remained this clean during a season. I am always on salt water. Shells, barnacles etc. have not attached at all. Algea if any could be wiped away very easily... On the picture you see one of my friends lifting the boat to clearly show how clean it is.... also...FASTER...thanks.

...(translated)...My Sailboat "SCIMITAR" has been sprayed with SaƒeBoatSkin®  in the beginning of this season...I was very sceptical but the product not only met but exceeded the promises made by the distributor. The boat remained virtually clean of all growth also around the waterline (no barnacles, no algea)..even on salt water...Also the treated area's above the waterline remained in much better condition then before.

...(translated)...we have applied SaƒeBoatSkin®  with rollers...without any problem my yacht of 10 mtr was ready in 1,5 hr...in first instance we had some growth...hower after we made some speed (4-5 knots.. the growth (including shells etc..) disappeared also on the waterline and did not come back anymore...after our holiday the boat boards were clean, just the opposite from all other years. ...Making some speed once in a while is important for a good result.... In the fall I am going to apply some new layers... then I am ready also for the new season....I am going to treat my second boat as well....in short a happy customer.

...(translated)...we have participated in the Dragon Gold Cup sailing race...to optimally perform we treated our boat with 3 layers of SaƒeSpeedSkin®...the end result was a second Dutch place...we are quite proud of that...it is difficult to say how much SaƒeSpeedSkin® contributed to that...however, also on behalf of my crew I can say that the result was better then expected... the boat felt good and sailed excellent... we are of the opinion that this certainly also is due to the treatement with SaƒeSpeedSkin®. I will gladly reccomend SaƒeSpeedSkin® and am pretty sure that with short most racesailers will apply SaƒeSpeedSkin®.

In preparation for the Daily Mail British International Harmsworth Trophy in August this year, we treated our Scorpion RIB 'Hot Lemon' with SafeSpeedSkin(R). Application was straightforward and people commented very favourably on the smoothness and clean appearance of the hull.. However, the real benefit was on the water where we judged the gain to be around 1.5 knots, a real bonus to us! After three heats, we finished 3rd overall against some strong international competition; this was a tremendous result for us and we will certainly be using SafeSpeedSkin(R) in future".
