I redid my entire bottom paint this fall and added in graphite to aid in making the bottom more slippery. My intent is to make the boat perform a bit better by reducing drag.
I know performance boats have done this for years and figured I had nothing to lose except the not cheap expense of the graphite.
I did first talk to a coatings chemist who said the graphite should not hinder the properties of the bottom paint but he was uncertain if drag would really be reduced, but did say in theory it should help.
