Antifoul

[ballena]

Got to paint the good ship Ballena's bottom this weekend.

What should I use, she is a Four Winns 238vista with a top speed of around 35 knots. We keep her in Southsea Marina which is still water although there is a cill gate so some water change twice a day.

I am looking at using Blakes Tiger X any thoughts?

Thanks

Hello chap, long time no speak.

I've still got the VBH signed T shirt.

Alternatively International "Interspeed Ultra" or the variant just below it, and I can't remember the name - damn it, it'll come to me after I have posted...

Anyway, I used the one below the Interspeed for my Windy (top speed 46kts). It goes on easy and dries quite quickly and so far as I can tell, it stays on and it definately repells weed, slime, crustacia etc.

I've used Seajet Shogun - for the past two "re-paint"s. Very good IMHO and about £30 cheaper than International. I highly recommend it!

I used Seajet for the first time last season - it worked a treat for me.
So it's going on the new toy when it arrives next week.

I got it from Peters Chandlery at Chichester but they didn't have any last week when I was there.
Take a look at the Seajet website <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.seajetpaint.com/uk_site/main.htm>Here</A>. They list the UK stockists so you could phone ahead.

I have used Seajet for the past 3 years and it seems to work fine for me ,on both the Itcheh and Hamble, but with all the comments praising the stuff it bound to go up in price soon
