C'mon Joe. Five years on bottom paint? Your in Texas where the water's hot like in
Florida. Visit an optimologist doctor and get your eyes checked or get thicker eye glasses....
Your paint's dead as a dodo bird.


Antifoulant may be dead, but thats not as much a concern to me as the
barrier coat. I can brush or sail off grass growth, but can not put off
rust.

Ain't no paint made can last five years in hot salt
water. You're beginning to sound like Silverback. Or you might be one of his sock
puppets :-)


You sound like LP ;0)

Joe
