Then you can add one coat each year.
I would have thought the reason you get a multi-season ablative is
so you
don't have to add one coat each year.

Normaly, that would be true, but he's using a cheap knock-off
product.
He saved $50, though, so it's a sweet bargain!

If you had actually read my posts, you would have known that I've used
Micron Extra exclusively for this millennium. When I tried to skip a
season, I started getting barnacles, even though I still had lots of
paint. That's why I decided to try the cheaper stuff this year - why
pay all that money for something that doesn't perform better in in my
home water?

If it doesn't work as well, then my last trip home will take an extra
15 minutes. If it does work better, as the only reputable marine
testing magazine predicts, I will have saved $200.


What's 200 bucks these days? Hardly worth worrying about. You must be
some miserly sumbitch. I'd spend the extra 200 bucks and not worry about
it. As a matter of fact, knowing for a fact that bottom paint is going
to do nothing but continue going up in price, I probably buy enough for
the next three of four haulouts. Save money in the long run that way.
Why be penny wise and pound foolish?
