I am just a few days away from pulling my boat out of the water (salt
water)
for a pre-season cleaning and to renew the anti-fouling on the hull and
I've
got a couple of questions:

1) Volvo 280 Outdrive - should I Anti-foul it or not? - Yes, I know that I
have to use special paint at about $75/litre. Trilux II
I've got a whole bunch of growth on the outdrive inspite of using it
regularly through the winter. Even the prop has a visible layer of green
on
it.

I used trilux II on my merc.. worked fine, with minimal growth over a
season. Previous years (without Trilux) the growth was heavy, I had to use
a long handled brush to clean the leg in order to keep the growth from
affecting the boats performance. The litre will last for several recoatings
and is well worth it. (I boat on Vancouver Island).
