Up until this past summer, I was always in a slip a half mile up a river. I've always used Micron Extra, and even though I am now moored in salt water, I still seem to be getting equally good results. Because of the price differential, I did try the Petit (Ultima SR-40) equivalent, and after just one season of the two season paint job, I switched back to old reliable Micron Extra.

That's right Bill. I tried 66 in brackish water which Interlux explained would be "salty enough". It worked fine during the first season but during the first haul out it peeled off in sheets. Fortunately the yard that put it on was a certified retailer so the repair/replacement was fully covered. I seem to remember they used Micron CSC.

    Note that Micron 66 is strictly for salt water only. If you spend
    some time in brackish water, as well as salt water, you are better
    off with Micron Extra.

    Thanks Mike

    I will be travelling I95 South or #9 from Calais thru bangor then
on to State #2 West at Newport thru Skowhegan to Sugarloaf, Me. Has been a long time since we skied there. Portland seems a few
    hours out of our way and we were hoping to make a quick stop at a
    store to buy some paint.

    Bob Abbott of Azura has pretty much convinced me to use Micron 66
    which we cannot buy in Canada
