A friend of mine kept his Catalina 22 in a slip on Percy Priest Lake in Middle Tennessee. This lake is plenty warm. He used to scrub the hull once or twice a year with mask, snorkel, and scrubrush. He said the algae came right off without the benefit of antifouling paint.

I kept it on a mooring in Lake Winnipesaukee, NH, for two and a half months this past summer. I put on my mask and snorkel and scrubbed the bottom three times in the course of the summer and it came out clean as a whistle in the fall. Winnipesaukee is a large northern lake, but the surface gets reasonably warm in the summer. I doubt you need any special coating on your boat. _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
