Marine, Boats, Ships & Harbor Corrosion Mitigation Corrosion in boats and ships is a constant problem. The salt air and water take a heavy toll on man and materials. CCC can be a great resource for manufacturer, shipping company, or boat owners. CCC can help identify corrosion problems before they occur. CCC can solve existing problems that seem to defy explanation. CCC can evaluate areas that cannot be easily seen for possible damage. CCC can help pick the proper cost effective materials for marine environments. Remember not all Stainless steels or Aluminum alloys are suitable for marine locations: some will fail in only a few short months. CCC’s Chief Engineer, William Byrd, serves on the IEEE Standards 45 Working Group writing international standards for Ship Designs. The IEEE 45 contains numerous standards for Ship construction. Mr. Byrd contributes heavily to the IEEE 45 Standard’s sections dealing with materials selections, grounding, and the electrical systems design requirements.

Proper selection and application of coatings is always a challenge in marine salt air environments. Let CCC help pick the proper solutions for you. The loss of fiberglass gel coating can easily occur where fiberglass is not properly protected against Ultra Violet (UV) damage. Fiberglass blister damage to boat or ship bottoms will happen quickly when bottoms are not coated properly.
