Is there anything I can use on the bottom which does not have anti-fouling properties, will stay on, and will give me a smooth bottom without red stuff rubbing on me every time I brush up against the boat?

Yea I talked to the pro's at yacht paint and they reccommend if you trailer your boat that you use car paint. I used it on the transom of mine after I repaired some holes and was having a problem with spraying gelcoat. I put it on and man does it work great for cleaning. Mine's been on since april and it is still there. It works great when you clean most of the time you can rinse off everything or easily wipe off, And the best part is the car guys can match the paint perfect.
