[C320-list] bottom paint

[Dennis Harris]

Pettit makes a water based bottom paint that they recommend for trailerable 
boats that are in and out of water.  This paint is supposed to be good up to 
a year out of the water without loosing its effectiveness.  Pettit states 
that this is the paint that Searay has used for 12 years for factory applied 
bottom paint.  (Go to the Pettit website and use their selector program to 
see what they recommend for your location and type of use).

 Gonna have the bottom done this fall and the boat will be on the trailer 
until next spring so it has to be a paint that is not sensitive to the boat 
being out of the water fo 5 months. Looking for opinions on bottom paints. 
I'm in a fresh water lake with zebra mussels as well as all the normal algae 
and stuff. I'm trying to put on a paint that will last for at least 3 
seasons.

 Anyone have a favorite?
