Valiant V490

[peterbird]

I have a valiant V490 which has never been antifouled, I just polish it every year.
I have now decided to antifoul it due to the amount of time spent in the water.
Can anyone tell me the square meterage or how much antifoul and primer I would need. The boat is currently in the water so I can't measure it.
I was thinking of international ultra and international primocon.
Finally apart from the price does anyone know the difference between ultra and ultra2.
Thanks

Interesting questions for this Forum as there are so many rib groups. It's only a 5 metre rib so you'll only need a tin of each.

'Ultra2' is claimed by International to be the next generation Interspeed Ultra 2 is a premium hard antifouling, ideal for fast powerboats in the highest fouling conditions.

If you look here, I think you'll find your answers. :encouragement:
