We've spent 3 weekends now working on the bottom of the boat. After disappointment with the Micro Ultra anti-fouling for the last few seasons we switched to E Paint ZO. Color is a bright blue which is the good news.

The bad news is that as we put it on the base coat of the existing paint started to fail and the paint peeled off in big patches leaving a very uneven surface!

Eventually we got two coats on but suspect that next year we will have to get it sandblasted smooth and repainted.

Only things left now are to buff the side of the boat to get the oxidation off the gel coat and have the yard fit the bottom boot seal for the saildrive which has fallen off.
