Coppercoat in the BC area

[Oceanis]

Trying to decide if I should go for coppercoat this time. Any views on how effective it is in the BC?

Did Cardiff marine remove your existing anti-fouling before applying Coppercoat? If so, do you know what technique they used? Do they have soda blasting?

Yes. They werent at all keen on blasting so they hand scraped it. Took two men 3 days.

I believe that all old anti-fouling has to be removed before you apply Coppercoat. The company I'm using in Swansea scrape off the old anti-fouling rather than blasting.
