Went across to Cowes Lift 'n Scrub yesterday. Lovely day to be out and about. Took my lad Will
boat was last scrubbed down by diver at Haslar just before S'butt trip in September and has been in water over winter.
Have been concerned about longevity of silicone antifouling as used by Boatscrubber and what one would do next. This is third season after application (which was onto a blasted hull).
Ralph was most helpful and gently cleaned off bottom. There is a particular type of growth that likes the silicone paint but which rubs off. You can see the slime etc in the photo above but majority of hull was fine. Prop came up nicely and fitted new shaft anode.
There were, however, two patches that needed some paint. Does anyone know what paint they used and where one can get some to touch in with?
