[C320-list] Prop paint

[Scott Thompson]

Does anyone have specific suggestions for an alternative to PropSpeed 
that works well on the Chesapeake Bay?

I've been using PropSpeed on my prop the last few years and am not very 
happy with the results. We tend to not use our boat much during latter 
part of July and August, and inevitably the warm waters of the 
Chesapeake Bay encrust the prop during this period. Scraping the prop 
then takes off the expensive PropSpeed. Plus two years ago I nicked a 
finger while scraping the prop and got a bacterial infection that 
eventually required surgery and months of antibiotic treatment. My 
doctor tells me to not go under the boat any more.

So I'm looking for an alternative. Obviously frequent cleaning by a 
diver is one solution, except that we keep the boat on a mooring so this 
is hard to arrange.
