    Hi Charles,

    Exciting news! If you don't mind I have a few follow-up questions to
    your follow-up post:

    1. When you say "no growth" does that mean neither plant nor animal?

    2. Did you have any in-water scrubbing done? If so how often and what
    did the diver report?

    3. Pardon my ignorance, but is Petit Ultima SR an ablative or hard
    bottom paint?

    4. Did you notice any "proximity" effects on your running gear (i.e.
    was there less growth on the running gear closest to the cayenne)?

    5. Cayenne can be a serious irritant. Did you take any special
    precautions while mixing or applying your brew?

    Spicily yours,

    Alex
