Flag paint that states for prop use for under 25knots hard wearing...never lasts long anyway whatever you put on it..better than nothing at all.................__................................ .............................

nice rich (apart from the prop - you obviously got that idea from Dave M) - still, no probs if you dont mind 2kts less speed and 10p more cost/mile
Looking good, shame you (we) cant get to sea this weekend to give it a blast.

Cant see it as it states on the tin for prop and areas or high water flow, it was painted when i purchased it with a older version of the same stuff. As for speed :0) when you see how quick the weed grows and how much was on the whole hull, i cant see 1mm of antifoul paint slowing me down that much
Anyone know where to get some paint to taffy up the arvor badge on the back? it is hand painted on, i watched someone next to me hand painting over his and it came out great.
To be honest the lock gates being closed is making me feel good as i am not ready for the season yet, could things i need to do in the boat that will take a few hours and back to work Sunday for 7 days soild.
Mind nice catch report from close in, great to see the 1st one with a bag of codling in it roll in.................__................................ .............................

It's not how much paint you have on rich its the surface .... polished = no drag, yeah it gets fouled then your back to normal, but its nice for the first few months to have a dragless prop, bearing in mind the tip speed can be approaching 100mph .......
thinking now I should have had slinky kate out this week as well, never mind will do that in july for a couple of days.
