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.

2) What should I paint the trim tabs with? - they are Bennet tabs and I
believe them to be Stainless Steel.

3) I have heard of people adding cayanne pepper to anti-fouling paint with
good results - anyone here ever actually done this? Did it work?

If you would like to see the boat, pictures are on my website at the bottom.

Thanks in advance!
