purchasing a boat in the not to distant future,renting a pad on the shores of lake mac
N.S.W ,will be keeping runabout moored of private jetty.Wondering if its antifouled
how much affect it will have on max speed of boat and if extra drag will knock fuel
ecconomy around much?
only every heard yaughtie's talk about the drag of antifoul when i was a little fella!
Is it even a issue? :-X

antifoul is not an issue...the growth that will be on the hull if you do not antifoul is a BIG issue.
