Sea Strainer Algae Deterrent

QuemasSea Strainer Algae DeterrentCapt. Travis Butters, Que MasOne Star

Supplies Needed: 1-inch Chlorine Tablets (can be purchased at local hardware or pool supply store) Have you ever decided to clean a strainer and discovered an algae lab experiment living inside? Captain Travis Butters has been using chlorine tablets to keep his sea strainers clean. It really depends on where your boat is and how often you need to clean your strainers but generally Ill clean mine and add chlorine tablets once a month. I use them in all my raw water intakes including the A/C, cockpit refrigerator and ice machine raw water strainers. The chlorine helps keep the coils clean so you dont have to break all your hoses apart to clean out each unit.
