My boat sits in the water from at least May till October as it did this past season. I have used the cheapest West Marine bottom paint for every year I can remember and usually just spot-paint wherever needs it unless it has been 2-3 years and then I do the whole bottom over for the small money it costs.
As I did the entire bottom last season, this season I will just spot paint where it needs it and be done with it.
For the new boat I'll be going all out and priming then finding a bottom paint that will last many seasons and I'll have a "contrasting" color underneath that will tell me when it is time to spot paint or repaint all together, something like the Vivid-Petit that I see ads for all the time.
