Fred, For my 35 I think I paid $1800 for the blasting. The company was onsite.

Secondly, did the boat yard charge to having soda blaster work on site? Yards here either won’t allow outside contractors or charge them to work in their yard.

They were spread out and not really concentrated in one area. The boat was originally commissioned in Maine. I suspect that it had a hard grounding at some point. I didn’t notice any stress at the back of the keel, which is where you would expect to see major damage in a grounding. This past spring when I had the bottom paint soda blasted, we found some longitudinal cracks in the gelcoat and glass on the port and starboard side in the hull, less than a foot from the keel joint. One was over two feet long. They were grounded out and glassed in. It is all faired in nicely now.

Mojito has a couple of short hairline cracks at the hull / stub joint on the port side, and at the very rear of the keel.
