I am in the fortunate position that I am spending some of next winter in Melbourne and often visit the local Jaycar which is 5 mins down the road.
My mooring is half-tide with soft mud and I also have had no luck preventing growth. There are two problems: (a) the mud leaves a film on the surface on which organisms can grow isolated from the toxins. (b) sulphides in the mud seem to be reacting with copper and turning it to inert copper sulphide. The original Coppercoat applied some years ago is now black instead of green in the area in contact with the mud.
I would really like to hear the results of trials from anyone who regularly dries out in mud.
I have two on a 50ft aluminium boat.They have been on for a few months now with no joy.
In Brisbane in muddy waters. tried just about everything .
Tested units on scope. Got in the water and can hear them working.
If i get nowhere with these ill sell the two units if some one wants them.
I wonder if the boat is too thick, (6mm plate).
