I have yet to find any anti-fouling product that will stick to the prop for very long when the boat is in use; so this is not a "what type of anti-foul shall I use on the prop" thread.
I had my boat and prop anti-fouled toward the end of May this year, I have had to scrape my prop of fouling regularly since the beginning of July when I started my holidays. As I live in Italy it is not a big deal to do a bit of snorkelling and scrape the prop - at least untill end of October!
The other week I scraped the prop and then went down with some Lanolin on my fingers to try and apply some to keep the critters at bay for a bit. Useless ...... the Lanolin emulsified and disappeared before I could get any on the prop itself!!!
I wonder if anyone has found a product that can be applied under water (sprayed, applied by hand .. )which would extend the time between scrapes??
Thanks in advance,
Alan.
