After 5 very unsetting years having spent the money on .... coppercoat, we now have no choice but go to anifouling - current cleanup rate of hull is down to 2 weeks!!!
A few years ago when the coppercoat was only 2 yrs old, I asked International about what they would recommend us doing to change to anifouling. Of course they 'couldn't guarantee how their product would work', unless we took the hull back to gel coat, put a primer on and then antifouled. I'd like to know if anyone has had the same misfortune with coppercoat, and whether they have put on their antifouling straight over? Basically there is barely any real copper left as I can see the white expoxy primer that we put on the hull before the coppercoat. Thoughts???
