Time to paint the bottom. I sanded her, need to do a little more. The
paint on the bottom now is blue ablative.

I looked at the Interlux ACT ablative. Then I got to thinking ?? Is this
the best ?

What ablative paint is the best to use, in your opinion?


The best value, or the best paint?

Practical Sailor did extensive testing and rated West Marine PCA a
good value in northern waters at about $80 per gallon. In southern
waters (Florida), they liked Sea Hawk Monterey at about $140/gal.

I've been using Interlux Micron Extra with good results but it didn't
rate quite as well as the two above.
