The person who sold me my boat said it had VC-17 on its bottom. I'm
looking at the Interlux website and none of the colors look like what I
have, which is kind of a muddy greenish color.
When the boat is on land, the newly painted bottom looks very much like it
has been painted with copper paint - nice and shining - and as soon the
boat is back in the water it turns dark "coke grey" ... and this is the
color until we paint it again. There could of course be other colors in
different parts of the world, but this is what happens to our boat ...

I get the same thing with Epoxycote (think that's it) here in Lake Michigan.
Almost black newly-painted, greenish grey upon drying after hauling-out at
season's end. Relaunch returns it to "dark coke grey." But then, I hardly
need bottom paint at all here, it seems. I'll put another coat on before
launch this spring, just fer the fun of it all, and because I'm moving to
"stiller waters" after launch so I don't have to spend the season fighting
cross-currents while docking...

Seems I've gotten a bit off topic. What were we discussing?
