Bottom paint suggestions

[Gibson19]

I could use some advise on what bottom paint to use. My boat is fiberglass in construction.
The boat will be on the trailer except for a few week long trips to the ocean and some fresh water lake trips. Will be on the trailer all winter.
Thanks

Just wax it

Most of the talented armchair surveyors on here believe that a fiberglass boat without bottom paint is a bonus when trying to sell it later. Easier to see the condition of the hull, also indicates that the boat was not left on the ocean or in the water for a long period of time.

Thanks everyone. Seems like everyone is on the same page.

slap on 8 thin alternating coats of grey/white interprotect 2000e.
prevents osmosis.

With my last boat I found the bottom yellowed and was very difficult to clean.
May do a longer trip up to 3 weeks.

Gel coat is porous. Try a product called FSR- fibreglass stain remover. This will clean it. Then fill the pores with wax.
