It's getting to that time again when we must all get our Antifouling.
In the Plymouth area I have had good results with Hempel Tiger Extra.
Not cheap I know.

Force 4 Chandlery are doing it for £59.95 which is pretty good.

However , I have also used Hempels Mille Drive stuff on the prop to good effect and needed some more for this year.

I got both from http://www.mbfg.co.uk/
Cheaper than Force 4 once carriage had been added (Tiger Extra £60)

No Connection etc...............

Incidentally , Jimmy Green are doing some clearance Antifouling with XM at the moment , £30 for 3ltrs. I did not go for this cos I was unsure about compatibility with the residual Tiger Extra on the boat , but this looks fantastic value.

Wont be using Tiger Xtra this year - about as much use as Homebase cheap emulsion last season. Never seen the boat so bad! Chi Harbour swinger on mud

Others are saying the same.

Whereabouts in Chi are you? I've used tiger extra for the last 2 seasons, only had a bit of slime when lifted at the end of the year. Boat is in church rithe.
 
We have tried a few over the years and first place goes to Jotun Seaqueen, 2nd to EU45 or Premier 1. All the others we have tried just didn't work - UK South coast.
