Happy new year everyone,
I did try to search the forum for info but came up with nothing. Possibly my lack of ability. In any event it is mid winter and cold in Buffalo so I was pondering my spring projects and one is to paint the bottom of Chingaletta. I do it every year and always wonder if I am using the best product available. Our boat is moored in the fresh water of Lake Erie and is used as a day sailor. What is the best (subjective, I know) bottom paint to use. First and foremost has to be ease of application. The West Marine ablative paint I used last season went on like glue.
The manufacturers information I read the more confused I get. So first hand experience is always best in my book. Collectively there are hundreds of years of experience available on this forum alone. What say ye? As always, thanks in advance for the helpful input as well as the wise cracks.
Cheers, Curt
