Thanks all 
Don't want to ask the last owner what was used as getting a straight answer on anything else has proved difficult.
Going to go with this, obviously assuming as per Mabys post that the old paint is firmly adhered (appears to be on cursory inspection)
Have already purchased the primer and antifoul so may as well use it, and see how it goes.
Thanks again,
Chris

We ran a trial in Oz with a variety of AF. We primed a board and then applied a variety of AF. The issue of incompatability, this is between a new AF on a new primer - but different manufactuers, did not appear for weeks. We have since re-done the trial as panels on a yacht - but we applied the AF over primer from each AF supplier. Each primer was simply applied over an old AF. We have had no issues, its been 4 months. The yard where we did the work, as a matter of policy, apply primer over old AF unless they actually know what the old AF is.
Good luck
