Abstract english
This leaflet provides brief information on the most important legally binding regulations for a safe and environmentally sound handling of biocide-containing antifouling coatings and gives further non-binding recommendations for handling. In addition to instructions on selecting a suitable antifouling product and how to clean the hull of your boat, you will find some tips on how to make the antifouling protection of your boat more environmentally friendly. The German Environment Agency has published a more extensive guideline "Antifouling im Wassersport - Was ist das Beste für Mensch, Umwelt und Ihr Boot?", which provides additional detailed information to optimally prepare you for the next boating season.
