I don't know the proper name, but it's an inclosed "bath tub" to protect dinghys in sea water like larger ones for power boats. I think they're built of PVC pipe and blue tarp and you float a swimming pool acid dispenser in it to kill any growth on the dinghy hull. Are these available retail or is it a rig I'd have to build myself? Thanks for any and all input.

It's called a "bottom liner", made to order by a Long Beach, CA firm called, coincidentally, Bottom Liner. Their website is www.bottomliner.com

Got a quote from Bottom Liner for my Watertender 9.4 dinghy: $550.00 plus tax! Decided to build my own: materials 60 bucks, labor priceless Pics in a few days.
