I understand about the Teflon and copper but I also want a dark blue bottom. Right now my Rhodes is aqua green and that is not my choice of color. I know you really can't see that much when it is in water but most of time it is on trailer.

Derek,
The color makes no difference. Its all about the teflon and copper oxide.
Rummy,
I doubt there is anything worse than Lake Erie gunk. It even includes zebra
and quagire mussels. With VC17, it just power washes off once a year.
I know a guy who smuggles VC17 into Florida to paint his boat docked in
brackish water where ocean mussels grow. (VC17 is not legal in every
state.)
