Hi,
Last time out was February 2011.
I tested International Micron extra which according to the agent could last for two seasons.
I got reasonable protection until last September. From last October I did not use the boat but one weekend and the condition of the hull deteriorated fast.

Most of the dirt was easily removed by water blasting!

here are some photos:

PS: the wreck next to my boat is what remains of the (confiscated) yacht of Italy´s dictator Benito Mussolini

What are the "blankets" draped over the side of your yacht? Looks like a good idea to prevent marks from the slings. I would like to copy this idea. Is it just a polythene sheet? How do you fasten it?

Thanks, Charles

Hi,
They are just thick polyethylene bags. The worker just hangs them from the railings.
