Agree with Gludy about Awlgrip. Bought my Storebro 410 beginning of last year and was slightly aprehensive about having another coloured hull. I previously had a burgundy banded Cranchi 39 which chalked up after 3 or 4 months.
Hauled the boat out last November for winter antifoul and polish and the blue was like new. The boat yard informed me no need to compound and polish the blue is a yacht paint. A quick call to Stoebro confirmed they had had the sprayed with Awlgrip. The boat was a former Show boat and demonstrator hence possibly the higher attention to the finish.
The other good thing is the ability to touch in the odd mark on the hull.
Cheers
