Perfect for sub 25 knot motor boats, used it for years, not expensive, easy to apply in one coat and now discontinued:(

What can we use as a replacement?

If that's the case I am glad my antifouling has just been done for the next year. I have also been using it for years and found it ideal for slow to medium speed cruising. Might have to look at a Hempel alternative for 2018/9.
 
Eu law and all that..seems International are withdrawing nearly all their currents brands and relaunch with new names and new components..though there was talk they may withdraw from retail market with all the possible new regs...Hempel hard a.fouls are supposed to be good...or stock up on Uno for the next few years while you can!

Any source for this reported discontinuation of Cruiser Uno ? Can't find anything online - and still seems to be listed on the International Paints site

It was a chandlery re International..I think Trilux is ok as it doesnt have copper but the expectatiom was International would withdraw the whole range and rebrand..or stop for leisure...and they were expecting about a 50pct price hike too. I think in part that was to do with volume they buy in and they were not sure that they would continue with International...
Where thay leaves other brands did not yet seem clear.
