Hi Guys,
I have a 2011 2310wa with no bottom paint. Boat is currently kept on the trailer but I am now looking into slipping. Several people in my area (San Diego) are using these armoredhull boat liners to keep growth off the boat: http://armoredhull.com/. Most of the people keep their fresh water hose on a timer to trickle in fresh water a few times a day to try to keep the salinity levels down. Between the freshwater and chlorine tablets they appear to work pretty well.
This appears to be a substitute for bottom paint to avoid growth, however, do you think bottom paint is still needed to keep gelcoat from blistering?
Any feedback is appreciated
Josh
