I’ve been using BW for about 5 years now. Buzz down with 80grit and recoat in the spring. Little hard growth, slime worthy of a cleaning every other week in the summer for racing. This year put 2 coats on, went nearly 8 weeks before it needed slime removal, still no hard growth. 2-3 weeks between

I always save from one year to the next. Some store better than others, but this Odyssey Triton holds up well, and does not settle out very fast. Also, BTW, this is the best antifouling I have ever used. A fact not lost on Pettit, as they are pretty proud of it.($400 a gallon!) Defender put it on

I used Total Boat Spartan Anti-foul that I left on board for 1 year, including one Florida summer with intense heat. 1 year later the can had buckled from pressure changes but the seal was intact. I opened it. It took about twice as long to stir it, but it was normal and I applied it to the hull

Pete, Two gallons should be more than enough. I’ve always purchased two gallons and had nearly half to a third of a gallon left over. In non-racing application with a foam roller it has been sufficient. And this is on the full keel version. Best, Dave Godwin 1982 C 37 - Ronin 1998 Mast &

Two gallons shoud be right for the 37. My 34R is 35.5 long and has a 30 ft waterline and uses about 80% of a gallon per coat. 75% in cooler weather. 90% in hot weather. Chuck Scheaffer Resolute 1989 C 34R > On 08/26/2021 7:11 PM Bob Tallman via CnC-List > wrote: > > >

Pettit has a bottom paint calculator (here: Pettit | Quantity Calculator (pettitpaint.com)). When you enter L=37 and beam=12 (I am guessing), they claim that you need 1.2 gallon. But if you use the 450 sq ft/gallon, they claim you

Might not be sufficient.  My 121 (40') took one gallon to put on a thin coat, planning for just one season.I think you will need a 3rd.  I would buy it and see.  Better to have it than not.  You can return it.Also, will you be hauling each season, multi season requirement?Bob
