[Rhodes22-list] A sailing question to break the silence

[Mark Kaynor]

Bob,

We had Raven's bottom redone last year and had a vinyl paint applied because
it's really, really tough. It doesn't contain as much biocide and many
others, but it's supposed to last for several years, staying clean with the
occasional light scrubbing with a 3M Scotchpad. We've been pretty happy with
it. We had black Interlux Micron CSC on there before. It's an ablative paint
that worked really well, but it would rub off on anything it touched
including swimmers, the trailer bunks, etc.

I am thinking of repainting by bottom (the boats actually) with a hard
paint.  Has anyone had a bad experience or know of any thing I should
consider before I make the purchase of VC17 or the like.  My biggest goal is
low maintiance between seasons.  The boat is in warm fresh water 8-9 months
a year and on a trailer 3 months.  I launch and and retrieve about 4 to 6 xs
a year.  Thanks in advance. Bob W
