Getting ready to put the F25 in the water finally! I have the bottom paint but looking for advice on how to treat the running gear. We will be in the warm salt water here in sunny Florida.
Thanks

I use Drivesleek Outdrive paint. When I pulled my boat, I had no growth on my rudder or strut. I'm in the Delaware River though, so the paint is not challenged like it will be in Florida.

Prop speed $$$$ or petite Zinc-coat barnacle block

Petit zinc coat, used past year with great results.
