Soory Sean, I had computer problems. Yes Barnacle Block is unfortunately out of business. I had good results with their product. Met the Musselbuster rep in Miami last show and had long discussions about it with him. Turns out he used to work for Barnacle Block, but theirs is a completely different process. I talked to him at length again in May about doing my props as a Ches. Bay test boat, but because of timing problems on my haulout I could not send them away for that long. I will do it next year. It is a proprietary hightemp powdercoating process that they use. There are some problems if you used STP on the props as it causes outgasing on the baking process, but otherwise sounds like a good solution to the fouling problem. I've tried everything else, and these coatings are the only solution if you aren't able to go out in the boat every weekend. Rawleigh
