anti-fouling for boat on drying mooring

[stephenjones1962]

Hi everyone I have my boat on a drying mooring and want to antifoul her (when the weather inproves!) And would welcome advice on paint and preparation. She's a snapdragon 23 lift-keel. Thanks steve j

I am no expert on this at all but there is a fairly comprehensive repoort on anti-fouling paints in this months PBO / Sailing Today.

I'd recommend a hard antifouling. You'll find that sitting in sand/mud on a drying mooring is better than sand paper for removing soft "eroding" antifoul.
