...The workboats and commercial fish boats have switched to a new system using a very high quality series of barrier coats, one of which acts as an anode if any electrolysis is going on; this is then covered with a bottom paint containing a less reactive form of copper. We've followed these developments now for the last five years and are convinced they are safe. This is the approach are using on the new boat - this is an Ameron-Devoe system and after almost three years in the water it is working quite well...
