Boat just come out of the water and her bottom is very clean with no bare patches.

Put two coats of Jotun Seaqueen on her last year and was wondering whether as it says on the tin if this will last for this year as well.

Any one any experience?
 
If you applied the recommended amount, it should be fine. For many years, I left my old boat in the water 24/7 for 2 years, only lifting for a few days every other summer to re-apply Micron. It worked fine; a little slime after 2 years, but nothing nasty. My new boat has a saildrive, so will probably need annual lifts to check the anode, but I'm hopeful I can get back into a 2 year routine.
 
That looks attractive, particular to me to AF between tides I see it only needs 8 hours (just possible on a warm day). But it looks like you can't buy it unless you are a professional?
