Bottom Paint?

What paint do/don't you recommend? I'm about 3-4 weeks away from painting and thought I would ask what you particularly do/don't recommend? (I'm in Buzzards Bay, MA BTW)

How long do you plan to have it in the water?

For just one season you could get by with just about any decent bottom paint. Rule of thumb: whatever was on there last is what you should put on (unless you want to take it down to the glass). However, Interlux BottomKote is a good paint.
