Peppermints Bottom

[Peppermint]

Is now true blue and weed free.

I confess it was 18 months since my last lift out. I'd applied one coat of Blakes Tiger extra using a roller which proves I'm a lazy b***r and I expected the bottom to look like The Great Barrier Reef. Apart from a hairy slime in a 40cm strip below the waterline and a garnish of weed central keel foot, where you slap a bit on while it's on the hoist, she was remarkably clean.

I'd noticed very little drop off in performance so here's to the next 18 months then.

The makers of premium priced antifoulings say that two coats should last two years in areas of moderate fouling

I suppose its a bit like a restaurant. If you walk past an empty one you do'nt go in cos the foods crap, so it tkes a while before the denizens of the deep start to dine on a clean boat, but once the start filling the seats the place'll soon get crowded . They can be dissuaded occasionally by bringing out the riot water cannon and washing w=them down .. or scrape 'em off with a pile .. hope that helps!
