Revolutionary Antifouling Company, WaveArray, Aims to Transform Boating Experience

Naples, FL – WaveArray Antifouling Systems, LLC, a local startup company based in Naples, Florida, is on a mission to revolutionize the boating industry with their groundbreaking ultrasonic antifouling systems. Founded in July 2017, WaveArray has spent the last five years developing innovative solutions to combat the age-old problem of biofouling, which involves the attachment of unwanted organisms like barnacles, oysters, and algae to submerged surfaces.

Biofouling has long plagued boaters, requiring them to resort to toxic bottom paints that harm marine life or to hiring divers for routine scraping. However, WaveArray aims to provide a superior alternative by designing, building, and deploying their patented ultrasonic systems. By attaching these systems to docks, WaveArray creates an ultrasonic “hurricane” around the targeted surfaces, making it impossible for fouling larvae to attach themselves. This cutting-edge technology offers 24/7 protection against barnacles, oysters, algae, and other organisms, all without requiring any involvement from boaters.

WaveArray’s flagship products include the Slip Array, designed for boat slips to keep boats clean of fouling, and the Dock Array, used to maintain cleanliness on various parts of dock structures such as floating dock pillars and shore-to-dock cable transition points.

“We are the only company in the United States developing technology like this and bringing it to the market,” says JR Brennan, the Vice President of Marketing at WaveArray Antifouling Systems. “As a local startup, we are dedicated to providing boaters in the Naples area with a cost-effective, environmentally friendly solution to eliminate biofouling.”

WaveArray’s success can be attributed to their team of experts, including mechanical, electrical, and ocean engineers, as well as seasoned business development professionals. With a deep understanding of the problem and the benefits their solution can provide, most of the team members are local to south Florida and grew up on the water.

“We are most proud of the WaveArray team’s ingenuity and perseverance,” says Brennan. “Developing new technology is never easy, but our team continuously overcomes obstacles and proves skeptics wrong with their technical solutions, communication, and professionalism.”

The company’s unique approach sets them apart from competitors. WaveArray’s ultrasonic antifouling systems not only offer greater effectiveness than existing solutions but are also environmentally friendly and more affordable. Their ultimate goal is to expand beyond the Naples area, covering all of Florida, the Gulf Coast, and eventually the entire country.

WaveArray Antifouling Systems consists of 14 employees, 11 of whom are full-time residents of the Naples area. The team shares a passion for boating, fishing, diving, snorkeling, and golf. They actively engage with the local community, serving on condo association boards and volunteering for marine-focused non-profit organizations. Additionally, WaveArray is an active member of the Marine Industries Association of Collier County.
