Tramex SMP Skipper Plus for Boats

The Skipper Plus is a specialised moisture meter for the marine industry. This non destructive moisture detection instrument is for use on GRP and wooden boats. Osmosis, also known as Gelcoat Blistering, is found in GRP hulls when moisture soaks into the hull surface, collects between the glassfibre and plastic laminate, resulting in blistering of the gelcoat.

The Skipper Plus can be used for early detection before blistering appears, identifying an affected area, monitoring hull de-humidification during recoats as well as checking stripped or peeled areas for dryness prior to re- coating.

The Skipper Plus gives a wide range of readings for wood of 5% to 30% on the hard wood scale and 0 to 100 on the comparative scale for GRP and other materials.

The Tramex SMP comes complete with 9v battery, carry pouch and instruction manual.
