Behind the iconic gold coating is a trained applicator network across more than 60 countries, backed by an experienced in-field technical team
For superyacht owners, captains and engineers, the Mediterranean season is as demanding as it is rewarding. In high fouling environments, proven underwater protection isn’t optional, it’s essential to keep superyachts performing at their best throughout the season and reducing the risk of unplanned maintenance.
THE INDUSTRY LEADER IN FOUL-RELEASE COATINGS
Propspeed® has set the gold standard in foul-release coatings since 1999. Tried and tested around the world, it has earned the trust of superyacht captains, engineers and owners by helping maintain performance, protect vessel schedules, and keep underwater metals operating and looking their best, season after season.That standard is supported by more than product performance alone. Behind the iconic gold coating is a trained applicator network across more than 60 countries, backed by an experienced in-field technical team that supports correct application, long term reliability and confidence below the waterline. Independent testing has further strengthened confidence in Propspeed’s performance. Netherlands-based shipbuilder Padmos, in partnership with optimisation firm Techbinder, recorded a 4.7% reduction in fuel consumption from the day of application. Propspeed’s partnership with Horizon Yachts, with Propspeed applied to every new build, further reflects Horizon’s commitment to performance, protection and long-term reliability.
FOULFREE™ MULTI-SURFACE SYSTEM: PROTECTION FOR UNDERWATER COMPONENTS
Beyond traditional running gear, superyacht performance extends to the components and tenders that support comfort, control, and life on board. Foulfree™ Multi-Surface System provides clear, non-invasive foul-release protection for non-metal and mixed substrate surfaces, including stabiliser fins, interceptors, and the underwater components found on luxury tender RIBs. 
From factory coated outboard lower units and bracket assemblies to thrusters, RIB tubes, and other tender surfaces exposed below the waterline, Foulfree helps protect the equipment that supports guest transfers, responsive handling and reliable operation throughout the season.Foulfree Multi-Surface has been tested to ISO and ASTM standards across more than 20 substrate classes, achieving the highest adhesion ratings across every surface tested. This technical validation gives captains, engineers, applicators and OEM partners confidence that the system can be specified across diverse underwater surfaces where adhesion, material compatibility and long term performance are critical. With a ten minute overcoat window at 20°C and full cure in just 12 hours, Foulfree Multi-Surface can be incorporated into planned haul-out schedules with minimal disruption.
HUMPHREE® AND PROPSPEED: A STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP TO PROTECT PERFORMANCE AND ENABLE MORE DAYS AT SEA
Propspeed’s partnership with Humphree brings Foulfree Multi-Surface System to a critical area of the yacht’s onboard comfort and performance: stabilisation. Humphree’s industry-leading fins and interceptors are designed to support efficient operation without compromising handling, making clean, protected surfaces essential to performance throughout the season. 
Humphree formally endorsed Foulfree Multi-Surface System for use across its full range of fins and interceptors, recognising the role clean, protected surfaces play in supporting efficiency, reliability and overall system integrity. “Foulfree Multi-Surface provides a solution that supports efficiency without compromising handling, and we’re confident our customers will appreciate the benefits it brings to their stabilisation equipment,” said Johan Cavefors, Director Sales Marine Professional, Humphree.”Working alongside leading manufacturers like Humphree reinforces our mission to protect performance below the waterline. Foulfree Multi-Surface is designed to shield all Humphree fins and interceptor product lines without compromise, providing efficient operation throughout the season while preserving OEM engineering aesthetics, through a clear, non-invasive coating system”. – Marcus Hamilton, CEO, Propspeed.
