Bruce Schwab/OceanPlanet

In 2004, renowned ocean racer, Bruce Schwab selected ePaint Company’s EP-2000, a fast, smooth, and environmentally friendly antifouling paint for his Open 60 Class Yacht, OceanPlanet.  Friday, February 25, 2005 after 109 days, 19 hours and 58 minutes Bruce sailed into the history books as the first American ever to complete the Vendee Globe, a complete, single-handed, non-stop race around the planet.  In late 2008, Bruce Schwab has retrofitted OceanPlanet for sailing events along the East Coast and Caribbean.  Not surprisingly, Schwab once again selected ePaint for OceanPlanet.  This time, Bruce has chosen ePaint’s new ZO-HP high-performance antifouling paint.  Having a hard, slick racing finish is essential for top performance and ZO-HP is a proven winner.  OceanPlanet will be competing/attending the upcoming Caribbean events this spring: RORC Caribbean , Heineken St. Maarten, BVI Spring Regatta, Antigua Classic Regatta, and Stanford Antigua Sailing Week.
