Not as much about the paint as about the shipping. Jamestown should be more careful, the last gallon can was badly dented, not opened, but it could have opened up and caused a mess. So far I've bought 3 gallons and 2 of them came in badly dented.

This boat paint was recommended by Jamestown, and I'm glad they did! I use it on my Aquasport Tournament 290 and It works perfectly. Even if the boat is in the water without moving for a couple of weeks it doesn't "scum-up". What little does, it comes right off when I take it out... and it lasts for several years!

The new blue paint covered the old red bottom paint well. Put two coats of paint and 3rd coat on all leading edges, bow, keel and rudder. Two gallons for a 35' sail boat left me with maybe 1/4 - 1/3 gal left over. Let's see if this works where I am in the Chesapeake Bay. Wear a respirator and tyvek suit, this stuff was potent.

Can't say how effective the antifoul properties are yet, but the application, coverage, and drying time were great!!

Painted my boat bottom a month ago, and launched it into salt water bays of Long Island. It's been floating at it's mooring daily, and the bottom is still clean as of July 4, weekend. The Spartan was easy to apply, and compatible with the previous bottom paint, so no sanding was needed.
