Invasive Species and Boating Invasive plants and animals block waterways, harm the environment and wildlife and can damage your boat’s engine and props. Photo credit: GB NNSS

Check Clean Dry Check boats, equipment and clothing after leaving the water for mud, aquatic animals or plant material. Remove anything you find and leave it at the site. Reapply anti- fouling annually.

Check Clean Dry Clean everything thoroughly as soon as you can, paying attention to ropes, bilges, trailers, and areas that are damp and hard to access. Use hot water if you can.

Check Clean Dry Dry – drain water from every part of your boat and trailer before leaving the site. Dry everything for as long as possible before using elsewhere as some invasive plants and animals can survive for two weeks in damp conditions.
