Hello all, I've made a start by creating a spreadsheet with information gleaned from forum messages. It is obviously incomplete and may in some case be incorrect. I've posted it in the files

Seahawk 44 contains tin. Tin in antifouling paints is banned everywhere in the world (except the Caribbean) because of the damage it does to the marine environment. There has been a discussion on this

You can also buy Seahawk 44 (much better & not available in the states)) in the in the Caribbean. Golden Hind in Tortola has it. Also available in Trinidad. I get 4 years of use with it without a

How many gallons of paint does it take for two coats generally and a third coat at the waterline? For Biocop TF, Seahawk specifies 331 sf/gallon, so at 53' by an average of 12 feet (my guess) it

Bill you are a mind reader, that is exactly my response to them. Still awaiting their reply. ;)

John, Maybe you've thought about this: Ask them if they will cover if you change your vessel home port and your address to St. John, Virgin Islands. If this works, contact Connections in St John
