Tortuga Lies' post on the "Sailors' Brain" thread in the "Off Topic" topic prompts me to declare that I'm in the process of slathering on multiple coats of "Supership Bottom" brand paint upon (beneath?) "Aurora". Has anyone else used this paint? If effectiveness correlates to the stink, it should be good!

I have used it and am very pleased with it here on the Chesapeake. High copper content and decent slime prevention. I skipped it this last time going with Petitt's Eco paint thinking I could help save the environment...........I'm going back to Super-Ship Bottom!!! The Eco is decent for preventing hard growth but the slime seems to be encouraged to grow on it, making me dive over to clean the bottom several times during the season. The Super Ship Bottom is also decently priced compared to other high copper paints, even considering the shipping costs from Florida.
