Poseidon participated in a conference sponsored
by the University of California Sea Grant Extension Program entitled
"Alternative Antifouling Strategies for Recreational Boats: A Working
Conference." The conference deliberated on important environmental
issues affecting recreational boating, pollution caused by heavy metal
paints and the proposal to ban the use of copper in recreational boats.
Focus was also made on alternative antifouling strategies that include
Poseidon’s non-toxic compounds. The proposed ban on the use of copper
in marine paints will also present an opportunity for increased interest
in Poseidon’s antifouling technology. For more information, please
