A room-temperature curable organopolysiloxane composition is provided, which includes (A) an organopolysiloxane with the terminals blocked with a hydroxyl group, a hydrolysable group, or both these types of groups, and (B) an organosilicon compound containing a hydrolysable group, a partial hydrolysis-condensation product thereof, or a mixture of the two, and (C) a polysiloxane containing an oxyalkylene group bonded to a silicon atom via, for example, a C-C-Si linkage. Application of this composition to an underwater structure is able to generate an antifouling coating that is effective in preventing the adhesion and growth of aquatic organisms on the surface of the underwater structure, and displays superior long term endurance of this antifouling effect.
