Kari ”Ruffe” Nurmi trusts Silic One:

Monica Elooe's inspiring experience:
Monica Elooe is part of the RO 300 Barcelona competitive sailing crew. The owner of their boat coated it with Silic One a few seasons ago with excellent results.
"According to the owner, it was a very good investment, and the boat is always clean. Our crew has noticed an increase in speed and reduced friction, and the boat has become easier to manage and steer. At the same time, we have noticed significant time savings in the annual maintenance of the boat's hull."
Monica had an incredible experience after the first season: the boat was lifted out of the water completely clean, without any fouling! She has since become a staunch Hempel Silic One fan.
