On <strong>April 20 to 29, 2022<\/strong>, they will start the round trip in northern Italy and travel via Slovenia and Croatia, respectively Dalmatia, to complete some already firmly booked orders for tank cleaning and tank inspection of yachts. <strong>SeaHelp members<\/strong> have the opportunity to join and additionally save 10% of the incurred labor costs of a tank cleaning via the <strong>Advantage Partner discount.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Make an appointment directly<\/h2>\n<p>Christian Burmester of MFT Mikrofiltertechnik says, &#8220;Interested parties should contact us directly so that we can coordinate appointments with you. Most owners attach importance to being present directly on site in the respective marina when the tank is inspected or cleaned. Therefore, if you want to be on the safe side, you should ask us in advance whether a tank inspection or tank cleaning is necessary or possible.<\/p>\n<h2>Tank inspection<\/h2>\n<p>SeaHelp members can book a tank inspection directly by mail at the SeaHelp advantage price of 135 euros and then receive a 10% discount on the labor of the tank cleaning that may be required. &#8220;<em>The prices for the services<\/em>&#8220;, says Christian Burmester, &#8220;<em>had to be raised<\/em> due to the enormous increase in fuel prices.&#8221;<br \/>\n<em>Tank cleaning<\/em><\/p>\n<p>For tank cleaning, the corresponding costs are charged depending on the ship and the effort, minus the ten percent SeaHelp advantage discount for members. But in this case, you usually save even more: since the cleaning professionals are already on site, the necessary travel costs are reduced not inconsiderably.<\/p>\n<h2>Tank hygiene important<\/h2>\n<p>SeaHelp has been pointing out the importance of appropriate &#8220;tank hygiene&#8221; for years. During an inspection of the diesel tanks at Olive Island Marina, initiated by SeaHelp, bacteria could be detected in the tanks of about 80% of the yachts inspected. For safety reasons, many tanks had to be cleaned to avoid the fear of fuel-related engine failures. The results of this first large-scale investigation ultimately led many owners to pay more attention to their fuel in the tank.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39876\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39876\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-39876\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen-750x750.jpg\" alt=\"Diesel filter yacht or boat deposits\" width=\"750\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen-750x750.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021-06-08_seahelp_diesel-tankreinigung_dieselfilter-yacht-boot-ablagerungen-1140x1140.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39876\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Once the diesel pest has spread through the fuel system, it is only a matter of time before the engine fails.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Youtube video<\/h2>\n<p>In a Youtube video, Christian Burmester explains on the <a title=\"SeaHelp Youtube Channel\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCF_9XB9W49eRUQltsOJ-noQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">SeaHelp Channel<\/a> the reasons how diesel pest gets into the boat tank, but also how to effectively protect yourself against the bacteria in the tank.
