One haulout several years ago we tried cayenne pepper and some tin based
anti-fungal from the hardware store. Unfortunately we didn't use a control
patch. But on haulout there didn't seem to be much difference from what we
usually found.
Lately we just buy the most copper for the least dollars and re-coat one coat
each year.

Subject: [Liveaboard] Bottom Paint Additive Maybe?
I saw the below in the news. I cannot help but wonder if these chilies work on
controlling elephants, how well might they work when mixed in with bottom paint?

"Conservationists working on the experimental project in Assam state said they
have put up jute fences smeared with automobile grease and bhut jolokia - also
known as the ghost chili and certified as the world's hottest chili by the
Guinness Book of World Records. They also were using smoke bombs made from the
chili to keep elephants out."
