While the effectiveness of cayenne pepper is questionable (I'll get flack
for this...) and is difficult to prove, the idea is to mix it with marine
grade antifoul paints in order to try and improve upon the product.
A possibly more effective, albeit illegal doctoring-up would be to purchase
TBT (tributiltin), sold in hardware stores (for the purpose of adding it to
interior housepaints to combat mildew).
If you want real good bottompaint, you need to leave the country or own a
vessel 80 feet or larger, since our lawmakers in their infinite wisdom have
figured out that putting tin based paint on small boats like ours hurts the
environment, while OK for megayachts, ships and freighters...
Take a pleasure cruise to Green Turtle in the Abacos, have the boat hauled
and tin based anifoul applied.
You'll be good for 2 to 3 years or more with your contraband controlled
substance on your bottom...
