A mid river non walk ashore pontoon? Then you will be within a pontoon or two of us! We are on Red pontoon (the old A pontoon) in the summer, and this year will be back using CU Pro on the hull and Hempel hard racing antifouling on the keels and rudder.Mine in fact isn’t in a marina, it’s a mid river non walk ashore pontoon, whose purpose is to fit more boats in than swinging moorings, which we would prefer.
Last year we used 3 leftover tins of antifouling of different types: hard, soft, Hempel, Seajet and International. All as bad as each other! (No difference in the fouling growth between the antifouling types) We scrubbed 3 times between April and October.
I did find a chemical lab that sold TBT by the gramme, but was shocked at the price. I won’t be adding any to this year’s antifouling.
