Default Ceramic substitute for bottom paint?

@g14g2000cwa.googlegroups.com:

There's now a company peddling the use of a ceramic coating as a
substitute for bottom paint. They claim that the bottom is so smooth
and slippery that merely moving through the water at a few knots will
dislodge any barnacles or sea grass. Hmmm....

Anybody else heard of this yet or know anything more about it?

What will they think of next?



Sounds a lot like "glassflake", which has been around for years (sorry,
can't remember details)
