Peter, Large subs that stay in the water constantly are painted with
anti-fouling to about 6 inches above the water line, topside up to walking
surfaces in an epoxy-based paint, and walking surfaces in an epoxy-based
non-skid paint. Sail and other extended surfaces same paint as above water
line (periscopes and masts grey and mottled black J). R/Jay Respectfully, Jay K. Jeffries Andros Is., Bahamas A skimmer afloat is but a submarine, so poorly built it will not
plunge. From:

and others... What
is right...do you paint a submarine in antifouling paint from keel to top
periscope, or only to surfaced construction water line ? Did
Carstens answer meant he gives EURONAUT blue paint up to this or is it the
whole boat ? Anti fouling paints are not always good for anything else then
antifouling - some will very fast get rubbed off if used on deck. We
have today all of Kraka covered with antifouling - but I am not sure if
people generally thinks a boat in that style looks better with a marked
waterline - last year Kraka was red below water - now all is dull
black. Comments
wellcome. Regards, Peter Jeg
