Antifouling You Can Trust: More Sailing, Less Scrubbing.

For every boat owner, the season is measured in quality time spent onboard and miles logged, not hours spent in the yard. That’s the thinking behind Micron® CSC-CA self-polishing antifouling from Interlux®, a coating designed to protect your hull steadily in the background, so you can focus on the water ahead of you.

Micron CSC-CA uses the renowned Interlux Micron Technology, a copper-copolymer formula that wears away in a consistent, controlled way as your boat moves through the water. As the outer layer erodes, it continually exposes fresh biocide underneath, providing excellent long-lasting protection against all types of algae, weeds, barnacles, and other shell fouling in fresh, salt, and brackish water alike.

That controlled polishing action does more than fight growth, it does the gritty work of keeping haul-out day simple. The coating doesn’t build up season after season the way many hard antifoulings do, there’s less aggressive sanding needed, less mess, and less time spent on jobs you’d rather not be doing at all. And because Micron CSC-CA is built for multi-season use, your boat can be hauled out and relaunched without the antifouling coating losing effectiveness, provided the film is in good condition and properly cleaned before hitting the water.

There’s a performance upside too when using Micron CSC-CA, a smoother, more evenly polished hull moves through the water more efficiently, which can mean better speed and improved fuel economy compared to a hull left to accumulate rough, heavy build-up of marine growth.

Micron CSC-CA is also easy to maintain. Suitable for both sail and power, it can be applied to fiberglass, wood, and properly primed steel or lead below the waterline, going on by brush, roller, or spray, and it typically applies over most existing antifouling coatings that are in sound condition. It can even be applied at temperatures as low as 41°F / 5°C, so cooler Fall and Spring days don’t have to slow the job down.

The result is a bottom paint that’s less about the moment you apply it, and more about every moment after, season after season. With the dependability of Micron CSC-CA, you can have peace of mind that your antifouling is quietly doing its job, allowing the hull underneath you to look good and perform at its best.

Less time in the yard. More time on the water.

The Whitsunday Islands

By Mathew Channer

On my first day as a commercially registered yacht captain, I sailed a Fontaine Pajot 38 catamaran from mainland Australia across the Whitsunday Passage to the western shores of the world-famous Whitsunday islands.

We cruised northeast on a 15-knot beam reach… perfect catamaran sailing conditions, watching the hazy shapes of the islands colourize and morph into crescent beaches, jungled ridgelines and rocky outcrops.
