OK...

Tried vinegar.  Tried Goo Gone.

Nothing.   

Guess I'll go the muriatic acid route...

David, I tried vinegar with a little dish detergent in it.  I wouldn't say 
the barnacles floated off, but 15 minutes with a scrub brush did the trick.

Stus-List Inflatable Cleaning

[robert via CnC-List]

David:

I had some barnacles on my hull this year.on the advice of a C 
lister, I used muriatic acid..diluted the acid (approx. 33% from the 
retailer) 1 part acid to 5 parts water (down to say 6%).put in a 
spray bottle and it pretty much dissolved the barnacles.  Let the acid 
stand for about 10 minutes and rinsed with a hose..no damage to the 
antifouling paint.

I use diluted Acid Magic (already very dilute hydrochloride) to remove
barnacle rings from my bronze prop and my PVC dinghy. Brush on, watch the
fizz, brush off.

Re: Stus-List inflatable cleaning

[Robert Gallagher via CnC-List]

Dave,

It's calcium.  At your age you need all the calcium you can get.

OK... mild acid, maybe even vinegar, should reduce the little discs to
goop.  I would start with a $3 gallon of vinigar mixed with dish soap so it
sticks a bit, then go from there.

Then you can blend with ice, ensure, geritol and rum.  Like a calcium
colada.

Sorry.  I just can't help myself.

I used muriatic acid to dissolve them, didn't hurt the hypalon one bit. It's a 
slow process though, you'll have to apply the acid and wipe down several times.
