Fred:

 

                As I mentioned in my note suggesting what NOT to get, I like 
Baltoplate.  However, VC17 is by far the favorite paint for racers in Erie.  
From a slime/growth standpoint, they both work about the same (which, frankly, 
is mediocre -- as was ZO-HP and the Jamestown proprietary ablative paint I’m 
currently using).  I am unaware of a bottom paint that stops the slime/growth 
problem in freshwater, most of which occurs near the water line where sunshine 
can get through.  Periodic scrubbing is the only method I know of to 
effectively deal with this issue.

 

                Let us know if you find something that works well.  Thanks.

Still looking for recommendations for bottom paint for use in fresh water. 

I’m interested in resistance to slime, durability and ease in application. 

Here in Portland, Or we don’t haul out every year, so  lasting over several 
seasons is important.

I am getting ready to have the bottom repainted. The yard is recommending 

Petit Ultima SR 60. 

Do any of you have experience or strong opinions about this paint. 

 

Our boat is in fresh water 99 % of the time. 

Other paint recommendations would be appreciated.
