International Interclene 245
A high solids, medium strength, TBT free antifouling. Interclene 245 is surface tolerant, fast drying and has low VOC. For fouling control up to 30 months dependent upon trading conditions and specification applied. Can be applied directly over existing antifoulings in good condition. For use at Maintenance & Repair.
International Interspeed 340
TBT free, controlled depletion polymer (CDP) self polishing antifouling system. For direct application over existing antifoulings in good condition. For use at Newbuilding or Maintenance & Repair.
Can't find anything about 460.
340 should be fine for use on a yacht.

You might be OK providing your yacht is at sea for most of the time and sails at 14 knots or more and doesnt sit around in marinas. ...
If you are getting these off the back of a truck well might be worth a try however most yachts don t move fast enough for long enough to carry out the necessary self polishing! Better off with the proper coatings.
Incidentally some of these products are not allowed outside of Europe !!
