Default Hmmmm, tin based paint

Got e-mail from the Bahamas yard asking if I want my boat bottom
painted so I asked em what kind of paint they use. They actually
still use the tributyl tin based paint that was so effective but was
outlawed in the USA. In the USA I think it can still be used on
Aluminum hulls but not on fiberglass or wood hulls. I never used it
but people say they got about 4 years of life out of it.
