EPISODE 125
My idea to avoid antifoul, and to instead to rely on regular cleans with epoxy bottomside paint instead, didn't work. Barnacles really took hold last summer. So here we go - antifouling time.
Products mentioned:
Jotun NonStop II antifoul paint
Nikotek Green Laser Level Self-Leveling
Frogtape (green)
1.25" zinc shaft anode
1.25" VMP Marine rope cutter (two halves for retrofitting)

I used to be in charge painting things like rigs, FPSO's etc not to mention the red bridge behind you, just a tad surprised at your choice of paint. Great videos by the the way, keep it up.

The next time you paint the hull, use a wool paint roller. Only 1 solves your problem.

Yayy new drop!

I had to listen to "Battleship grey" x 2 to make sure I heard what I heard.... ;D

[@victorbjorklund]

I think you put up the wrong title (it is the same as prev episode and doesnt match the title on the thumbnail)

[@scottcates]

This is good

[@archdavis6942]

Looks great! I have to do the same 😂

[@xnademolicious]

Often times an intermediate line of colour known as a "bootstripe" is painted between the antifouling and the topside, right at or just above the waterline. I'm honestly not sure why it's done, maybe to just to make the antifoul colour transition look smart, which it does.

Haze grey and underway... (soon)

[@deep6ed]

Nice brief update. Alan is looking ship shape and Bristol. Have you a link for the level?

[@daylen577]

I wonder how long this will keep the politicians at bay, is this something you'll have to reapply completely every year?

[@LOLLOF90]

hi, i live half an hour form your boat, i have some flexible bladder water tanks that i was going to use for a camper conversion, but i'm ended up not using them.. would they be useful for you? i could drop them off your boat.
