2014 xcell H20 bay with a few barnacles

I know the guy that owns it and he left it in the water a couple weeks. How do you remove barnacles from a painted bottom aluminum hull?
It has a Yammy 115, redfish package, stainless package and he may sell for $15k. Worth over 20k without barnacles.
I may buy if barnacle removal won't ruin the hull.

Not a bad price. Good luck cleaning it though.

Yeah, I've seen it on his carport a few times and always liked it. But the bottom, not so much.
I've cleaned barnacles off of a Ligic/Triumph ropeline/plastic hull. Painted aluminum may be tougher.
I have a lift and will keep it on the lift or trailer if I buy.

don't overthink it
the barnacles are attached to the paint not the aluminum
paint is much easier to repair than gelcoat
buy the boat if you want it

a paint scraper will knock them off no problem we do it on tugs all the time when they don't want to sand blast. ALso depending on how good the paint job is a decent pressure washer may do it.
