Marinas are heavily affected by the brine ocean water and the air blowing from the sea. A lot of investment goes into setting up marinas so a little more investment can help in the long run. It would help if you insulated the interiors from the effects of salty dampness, which can be extremely detrimental to the interiors. Simply painting the inner walls, weather coating, drywall covering, and plywood or FRP panels is no solution. Choose the material very carefully for complete protection. We prefer installing PVC marine wall panels as they have plenty of benefits. Vinyl is the only waterproof material available to cover the walls and ceiling.
PVC marine wall panels do not require daily or strict regular maintenance. Vinyl marine panels have a smooth surface that does not attract impurities and dirt. The panels do not allow bacteria or microorganisms to thrive beneath their surface. Wipe clean the panels occasionally or with a damp cloth and mild cleaning agent. Wash the PVC panels when needed and you do not have to worry about moisture seepage.
PVC panels in the USA are heavily used for commercial purposes. The panels have a longer shelf-life of about 45-50 years minimum. Some panels can also last for more than 100 years. PVC is a lifetime solution. It only takes a little more investment which is worth it compared to FRP panels for marinas. FRP panels are not long-lasting, even more if they get exposed to moisture. The panels easily bend, warp and delaminate within a few years. The investment initially is lower than PVC panels, but you tend to spend more on maintaining FRP panels in the long run.
