What\'s wrong with a white bottom ?

Mr B won't let me choose white for Tommy's bottom when she comes out for her annual wash and brush up. What's wrong with white for goodness sake...... it looks lovely.

But you will spend all your time wiping it clean!!!

Far better to have a black bottom so all those dirty oily streaks can't be seen,

Re: What\'s wrong with a white bottom ?

certainnly for us yachtie types the erodeable type of antifoul contains a certain amount of copper content. This tends to turn the antifoul a shade of green wher in contact with the air. i.e at the waterline. However you power people would use the hard..and expensive stuff and these especially teflon base should remain good in colour. Whats this weed anyway, surely you go too quick to give it chance to grow!!
ver thought of pink, just like pussys carpets?

Pussy's carpets are no longer pink. There are black, with "Pink Pussy" embroidered on them in bright pink !

I don't think Mr B would approve of Tommy having a pink bottom ...... and Mr Riva would turn in his grave.

Pink bottom would certainly help give you a more peaceful boat trip

There is some good evidence that the darker colour antifouls are more effective.

Re: What\'s wrong with a white bottom ?

I have always been led to believe that dark couloured pigments are softer than light colours. Not sure that this applies to antifoul though.

Re: What\'s wrong with a white bottom ?

An 'expert' informed me that white or light bottoms encourage weed and marine growth , dark bottoms don't. Boring answer I know but probably correct.
