I keep my '95 Barchetta docked in in the water from May to Early October. Although I have not had any serious gelcoat blister issues, I am a bit nervous about that and am considering sealing the gelcoat. There appear to be a lot of products out there. Nearly all are two part systems that require a lot of prep, multiple coats, etc. Does anyone have any recommended products or advice? Thanks, and hang in there spring is coming! Paul Z.

I did alot of research on this and what I found that will work for me is that you should paint the hull with a antifouling paint ($59.00) a qt. I will be using a Interlux vc17m this is for inland lakes. If you go to iboats.com or give them a call they will help you out.1-800-869-1686 I know you hate to do the paint thing but better safe than sorry. Good Luck
