Though not technically barnacles, these mussels found a little home in our raw water intake cylinder for our air conditioner.
The Barnacle Cluster on our dinghy: my enemy for the day.
My tools to fight off said enemy (Goggles are not pictures as I am wearing them). I would advise anyone to use GoofOff on barnacles - they lose their footing much easier.

Half-way there!Once the dinghy's hull was free of barnacles Josh and I had to laugh - there were bits of barnacles (shell, oozy things, and little crawly things) all over me. I was even wet from the rain that had passed through. I looked like a crazy lady who just hacked her way through four months worth of barnacles.
