I have kept my yacht in a mud berth for 12 years and have yet to find an Antifoul that actually works. I take her out every year for the normal annual tasks and
find that there are large numbers of barnacles on the hull, starting and going down from about 350mm down from where the level at which the mud starts when she is sitting in it.
I have tried most makes of antifoul. Usually I try soft self eroding types mainly because they are generally cheaper than the hard types and there is no point in spending money on something that experience tells won’t work. But this year I might try a hard type if anyone has had good results with one. The semi-hard or hard Seajet that I tried about 9 years ago didn’t work very well, I don’t think they do that one anymore.
Any recommendations ?
