Default centerboard paint???

I think I've gotten the answer, it's not needed. You have the same thoughts
I did/do. I just wondered if there was something I'd missed.

Thanks,
Roger

Roger,
I guess the question is not clear.

If you are asking if it needs paint for protection from water intrusion,
what paint would be an improvement on the epoxy?

If you are asking if it needs anti-fouling paint, what is the longest you
expect it to be in water that grows things?
If it is more than a week, think about it, but not all anti-fouling paints
will stay active if left in air too long.

The Chebacco's CB is entirely enclosed in the case. The boat will live
on a trailer. Is there any reason to apply paint to the interior of the
case and or to the CB? Both are well encapsulated with epoxy.
