[Rhodes22-list] Antifouling paint

[The Rhodes 22 Email List]

Petit Trinidad was put on my boat by Stan and Co. During a recycle for the
previous owners. I put on a coat in spring of 2013 just before plunging. I
have a diver friend who cleans boat bottoms as a business and she checks my
boat once or twice a sailing season and always reports that it is very
clean with just a few barnacles. I'm shooting for 5 years with no
repainting.

I'm on the Chesapeake Bay which is different from freshwater lakes. So I
don't know if this will be helpful to you rummy.

Glad to hear you're feeling and doing well.
