Hello
I have read the discussion with great interest. I plan a new AF in march in NZ (whangarei)for my catamaran used for offshore cruising ( we are still in fiji). We currently have ablative, and on tropical waters it does not prevent alguae growth, so we have to clean the hull ourselves every month , which increases the abrasion the AF, but no other option to keep it clean.
I am really interested by silicone or hydrogel based product, especially for our use: we live onboard, so it is not a big deal to wash it ourselves regularly by diving, and our boat is fast enough to have abov
