Is seajet emperor worth it?

[stu9000]

Years ago I used hempel classic anti fouling. Then moved up to seajet shogun .033. now I think I'll try the seajet emperor. It's supposed to be better at combatting slime. The whole thing is such a faff it's worth doing properly. Not ready to consider copper coat yet. Sailing vessel on swing morning on Medway. I know there have been posts on this before . The pbo survey was pre eu regulations change and I'm interested to hear what your experience is.

Best to ask what others use who keep their boats near you.

The same antifoul will work differently dependent on the water you are in.

Shogun 33 works brilliantly in the Hamble for example..

Used it for fifteen years. Excellent afoul, critically it is colour stable if using white.

Can you still get Seajet Emperor? I thought it was only for 'professional use ' & not available for diy?
