Interesting that there are no crustations. When my Azi was lifted last summer, she was covered in crustations, berthed on the Hamble.

We were surprised at that too. Ultrasonic antifouling, not a cure but I think it helps.

Hi Winchy,
Interesting pictures. Can I ask if the boat has moved over the winter. We too are at Mercury. Went in last March and came out early December. Fair old bit of boating last year but our bum was very clean on lifting. Cruiser UNO antifoul. Amazing how even in the same marina you can get differing results. We are on E pontoon, I must come and say hello to you next time we are down. Can't miss us, we have the 2 noisy boys!!
Re the prop...... You've not let Steve near your boat have you

Just for interest this is what seabird looked like mid November last year when lifted out at Hamble point.
Just a bit slimy really, that's also cruiser uno

Hi Paul,
The boat hasn't moved all winter from A47. Looks like it is a thumbs up for cruiser uno antifouling. Yes definitely pop over and say hello next time you are down, it would be good to meet you. We do remember on our first trip down the Hamble you gave us a big wave as we passed one and other!!
Will be keeping an eye on Steve once the new props are on!! ?

Haha we love to wave...... Even more so to the people that totally ignore us!! I guess we spent too much time on the Thames being sworn at by the rowers!! Makes you realise just how friendly mst people are.
Will defo catch up over the next few weeks.
I guess the extra growth is explained by your winter afloat. Cruiser UNO certainly works for us at mercury, saves the extra coat, extra build up and not to mention cost!!
