Not in panhandle...but

They recommend every 2.5 years over here in Jacksonville.

In Pensacola

I get about 2.5 to 3 years out of a good quality job. However, I usually do the bottom every two years as it is easier than fighting with the barnickles the last six months.mark

In Gulf Breeze

I get 3 years using Trinidad(sp?)red bottom paint.That's with bottom scrubbing every several months when the water is warm enough to go in.
