Business Venture?

Post by ash »

Hi

I have an idea for a new business venture.

I will apply to the Crown Estates for permission to place mooring buoys such that boats can be held in the ‘Jacuzzi’ for a while to gently clean their bottoms.

What do you think?

And a few more buoys to get in and out safely! (can we have another pic at LWS please)
Bottom-cleaning could go either way - there may on occasion be 'additives' that either kill the barnacles, or make them grow twice as big.

The fish there, reputedly, grow bigger owing to the warmer water and, errm, possibly, the abundance of nutrients.... Only what I've heard, mind.

So, following that train of thought, will the barnacles also be bigger?

This could be counter productive.
