Here is my boat being hauled out last week after sitting idle since november 2012. Bottom was last painted in spring of 2011. Last spring I only did the waterline. Bottom was clean last year and as you can see this year. The paint used was interlux Micron Extra. They claim its a multi season paint and my photo is the proof. Your nuts to try anything else.

Nuts? no - paint is very dependent on where you are in the world. Where I am the Micron Extra lasts about 9 months. I put on CopperCoat - and so far I am at 8 1/2 months and still zero growth. That is unheard of on any other paint apart from VC-17. But VC-17 usually "only" lasts for about 2 seasons here.

but just out of curiosity.....rather than removing it if unhappy with it......since it seems to be hard as hell why not leave it on as a barrier coat.....and paint over it? anyone ever tried that?
I just can't comprehend all the Zyrex issues. I've had it on mine for 2, going on three seasons. We saw a 15% increase in fuel economy, and 10% increase in speed. We do get a little growth over the winter, but we pull it every spring and spend an hour with the pressure washer and it looks new again. Two of have the paint in the marina with similar results. I wonder if a few of you have had a "bad" batch, or if the prep was off.
I'm going into my 4th season with it with no issues yet.
Cleans pretty easily in the fall....and looks like new again.
