I have to do a bottom paint job on my Rhodes. Has anyone used the V17 blue and if so is it a dark blue or light blue?

Rick,
I already have the best bottom paint for this lake, but as stated, Lake  
Hartwell slime is impervious to almost every brand available. I will still 
need  to scrape the bottom (lightly) at least once a year.

Rummy,

Save yourself the cost and aggrivation of a floating  dock and paint the
bottom with VC17.
