You see it again every year. That ugly green build-up on your boat cover But what is it and how does it come about?
What is the green build-up on my boat cover?
- green build-up are algae and moss.
- Algae and moss are organisms.
- These organisms grow easily on a wet, moist and shady surface.
- Take a good look at your boat cover. One side is probably greener than the other.
- That green side, with lots of algae and moss, probably gets less sunlight.
- Less sunlight means that the fabric stays moist longer there.
- That is also the reason that this annoying green build-up mainly occurs in the fall, winter and early spring. After all, these are the months with the least sunlight.
