Terry,
I agree with Capt. Chuck's recommendation on use of Signature Finish paint below the waterline. What sold me on it is when owner Tom Fabula told me he painted his swimming pool with it over 10 years ago and it was still holding up fine! My boat was in the water for 2 weeks on our circumnavigation trip a couple years ago and I had zero problems with the paint on bottom. Did have a little marine growth on transom and bracket areas not exposed to high speed water flow, but a quick scrub during slack high tide at Peanut Island took that right off. That paint is so slick that stuff doesn't stick to it very well! If you pick a color from any commercially available paint like Interlux, Imron or Awlgrip, Tom should be able to match it.
Chuck, I understand Tom is back in business, but do you know if he's gotten his house and office rebuilt after the fire? Denny
