What price for bottom paint is everyone seeing this spring? My locaL shop is $249 per gallon for Micron Extra with Biolux.

Under $200 after tax for me. But i have a great discount at my local marine supply store. (I buy a lot of stuff for a lot of different boats.)
But yeah, MSRP list price for this stuff is a joke, typical discounted price should be ~$230-$250.
I use this stuff on all my power boats that spend time moored. I am relatively happy, I get 3+ years life with a 2 coats, on the boats that stay moored year round in the PNW. I dive the boats every 6 months and do a quick clean. I put an extra coat in areas that see sunlight.
If you are doing just one boat (BW); I would go with a little harder paint. Micron Extra is pretty soft stuff.
