Default Bottom Paint question

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.


Isn't the first a one season paint, and the second a multi-season?


All three of the paints I mentioned are multi season. I've gotten 2
1/2 years out of the Micron Extra and it was still doing a good job
when we hauled out last week except for high wear areas. We covered
about 8,000 miles in that time, both north and south.
