Hi,
Boat getting lifted onto the hardstanding next week so going to antifoul and service her, bought the triple tin seajet Antifoul for the 2 X Volvo Penta 270 outdrives, think it's 114?, it has the same on it now,so do I just use the antifoul with no primer as think you have to strip the old off if you want to start again and don't fancy that job lol

Remember to leave a 25mm gap around those aluminium transom assemblies when you apply hull A/F !
When that delightful job came round each year would jetwash the leg as clean as possible, only apply primer to bare metal and apply new leg A/F on top of old.
Its getting up underneath in the nooks and crannies to remove barncules thats always a pain and of course check the gearboxes for water getting in via shaft or gearchange seals.
If U/J and exhaust rubberware is more than 2 years old need to consider replacing, especially as its already out of the water ?

Thanks for the tips,she was supposed to be craned out on Monday just heard their crane has done a hydraulic ram and will be out of action for 7 to 10 days,just our luck, back onto the antifoul,got Hempel Tiger X for the hull bought white and blue so can see the wear and it's the same seajet a/f for the sterndrives just going from Penta grey to black so should be all good once we get her on dry land😁
