Comments about Pettit Z-Spar Pettit Ultima SR Ablative Bottom Paint:
Have used for last 8 seasons, with boat left in water all year. 2 coats have consistently lasted 2-3 seasons with only light scrubbing mid-summer. No hard growth, light slime growth.

Comments about Pettit Z-Spar Pettit Ultima SR Ablative Bottom Paint:
Left boat in 2 seasons on the Chesapeake, not a bit of anything growing on hull where this paint was applied, but like a razor's edge....just above where I stopped with this paint, right at the water line, had huge barnacle growth all along the water line, stopped right where this paint began. This year, I'm raising my waterline a bit and bringing this paint up higher.
Went on easy (my first time doing it too)...all I did to prep old ablative was use an 80grit drywall screen on a pad on a pole, brushed the hull to get some of the old loose stuff off, and rolled this on....couldn't have been easier.
