I like the reviews of Micron 66 and even tried it myself. Unfortunately it requires a high salinity environment. The water in my area is only half as salty as the ocean, the paint seemed to work fine during the season but during the end of season haul-out the water used to pressure wash was fresh. A day later all the paint peeled off in large sheets the size of my hand. It made for easy re-painting. The manufacturer was in disbelief, sent a rep to look at the boat, and since the paint was applied by a certified boatyard the manufacturer paid to repaint at no cost to me. I believe they used micron csc as a replacement.
