Roger, up north we just powerwash in the Fall and use a Scotch pad to
buff in the Spring.Generally, I don't believe it is rec'd for salt
water.It is very low in Cu and, you could always add more. I have had
medium to low results in the Ches. Good luck, it is good paint.
Roger, I didn't realize you were in salt. VC17 and 17M didn't fare
well in a Practical Sailor review a couple of issues back. I use it in
Lake Ontario because it works here well with the zebra mussels and
slime, but it's only 20% copper. Other bottom paints might do better
in New England.
