Charlie, Is 1000# the actual weight of your centerboard? That's heavy but effective in keeping the boat upright.
It looks hard to bottom paint a centerboard because our lift can't lift 35 footers high enough to lower the board fully. Does the trunk need painting too?

My 36 XL has a 4.5 ft depth lead cb trunk so there is plenty of 'keel' with the board up inside the trunk. Since the board weighs ~1000 lbs, grinding it up is not something one does frequently, unless racing.
