Antifouling Propeller

From Nigel Garbett (No. Guest) 21 Jan 08

I have a Hardy 20ft Motor Sailer with a YANMAR GM20 18 hp diesel driving a 3 bladed prop. I have her out every year for bottom scrub and prime/antifoul etc, I also clean the prop etc ready for protection. To-date (3 yrs)I have never found a coating which - stays on and protects the prop. I snorkel at least four times a season to scrap and remove growth/barnacles etc any ideas please.

I use two coats of International hard anti-fouling for aluminium propellors over two coats of primer and find that lasts on the prop of my Yamaha 10 hp.
