Happy Hull Protector – PRO mk2 XS <6.5m/21ft

Happy Hull has been great to deal with and provided me with an excellent innovative product. So simple yet beautifully executed. After cleaning and painting our hull for the 5th year in a row I stumbled across Happy Hull and have thrown the scraper in the bin. As an added bonus to keeping our hull spotless the cover has saved my children from dropping my wallet, boat knife and car keys from sinking to Davey Jones locker. Worth it's weight in Gold. 5*'s

I would like to thank you for the supply and installation of my Happy Hull Cover. I am very impressed with the quality of this product and how it has made having a boat permanently in the water a pleasure and not a pain. No Antifoul. No growth of weed or barnacle it really has put the pleasure back into having a boat, well done on producing a great product.
Thanks again

We were looking for an alternative on water dock solution for our 28ft motor boat and came across Happy Hull. Rory and the team have been superb from start to finish - from ordering to installation which took less than an hour.

I was amazed how quickly it can all be put together, how easy it is to get the boat on and off and not to mention all the benefits the Happy Hull gives. Very happy with the product and the team - would highly recommend it especially for medium to larger sized boats.

I installed a Happy Hull for my Axopar 28 earlier this year and it's more than lived up to my expectations.

Firstly the goal was to eradicate growth on the hull and maximise performance which has worked just as I expected. I recently lifted the boat out for a service and the hull was entirely free from any barnacles or growth.

The added benefit though for me has been that the hull protector makes bringing my boat onto berth so much easier. The process of driving onto the hull protector helps hold the boat straight even in a cross wind and as you are almost fully in position there is enough natural drag/friction to hold you in place. I can crew solo in any conditions without any concerns about getting back onto berth alone.

Rory from Happy Hull went over and above in the level of service I expected.
I was unable to attend when they fitted the hull but that was no problem for Rory. He took care of everything, sending me photo updates and even a drone timelapse of the whole process!
The hull of my boat was absolutely plastered with marine life and although they recommend getting the hull cleaned before fitting the cover, within a week the effectiveness of the product was evident by the smell of the now dead/dying residents of my hull. Needless to say I have had the hull cleaned since and so far, the cover is working perfectly.
As a bonus, it really helps docking as once on, my boat moves far less laterally than it did before and has made the docking process much less stressful.
100% recommendation from me.

Thank you Rory!

Great product with great support.
I bought Happy Hull a year ago and it has performed as hoped. It's great not to worry about weed growth, which is unattractive and adversely affects performance and economy.
The material is unaffected by the aluminium hull on my XO, which was one of my concerns.
I have just taken the boat ashore and all the anodes are fine and won't need replacing - another saving.
Thoroughly recommended

Bought this in May 2024, and think it’s brilliant. We are a Happy customer.

I think Happy Hull is a great product and I love the name too. Such a simple, practical and robust solution to the problem of boat hull fouling when moored.

Marine foul on my hull is Something I have really wanted to solve as a problem for years. Nothing made any sense to me. Dry docks, anti foul (poor marine life) and the phaff and costs of reapplying not to mention speed reduction and fuel use increase and the one way street nature of applying Anti Foul to a never anti fouled hull. Then there is the need to drag the boat out and jet wash it all off regularly and usually when the weather is more suited to using the boat not working on it !

Roll in Happy Hull :)
So now for me……yippee…..No more jet washing the hull, no more fuel use increase, no speed reduction and no more anti foul (which the marine life are very happy about too) AND….now I don’t stress about it getting a dirty hull just sitting in the water when I’m not using it.
Of course , I suppose other soft benefits are there too, like my stern drive isn’t in the water nor are the bellows and no salt water electrolysis circuits being created rotting my electrical wires away due to it not actually being in the water anymore when not in use? And I guess no worries about osmosis on the hull either. Just a thought as I was writing this. Nice to know.

It also works for me well because I can drag it out and pack it away in the winter (being a summer boating person), where as a plastic floating dock system would be very hard to do that with.

Service wise, Rory and the team are a delight to deal with, they installed the Happy Hull quickly and professionally and stayed with us for an hour to berth and un berth a few times to ensure we knew how it worked and were, well, Happy :). And I have to say, overall, having one of these in your berth makes for much easier docking too. The boat glides in to the berth and the Happy Hull being there prevents the boat from drifting left or right.

In summary, great product and service, and now for me, it’s no more marine growth , no more anti foul, no more planning in of jet washing the bottom regularly and more boating fun with a little less boating work and worry. Thanks Rory and Happy Hull.

It’s brilliant. We brought the boat home in September and went back the following week to clean the happy hull and bring home for the winter.
We power washed it on the berth all the growth came of easily and is now all rolled up ready to go back down in April. The only thing I would say which would massively improve the cleaning process is the hull protector could do with some handles sewn in on the sides so that it could be moved easily while cleaning.
The boat hull is immaculate with just a few small stains hardly noticeable, so yes I’m very impressed and would definitely recommend it.
Plenty of people at Torquay seem very interested too. The hard bit is justifying the cost of which looks like a piece of polyethylene sheeting floating on the water compared to an actual plastic dock which is actually ridiculously hard to use and maintain and in know way practical to take home for the winter so I’m guessing the marinas will favour the happy hull.
As it leaves the berth free for other users.
Having had both now I would definitely choose your happy hull every time.
Thanks for getting in touch.
