In North Carolina, and when I was in the Philadelphia area before moving
here, the haul out includes haul, pressure wash, block, store for up to 2
weeks, and relaunch. So the pressure wash is included in the cost of the
haul out. Which runs $8 per foot locally.

 

JUST THIS June I had a short haul on my 38. Had intended to do the bottom so
had planned for a 2 week haul out. But after the pressure washing (for which
the boat remains in the slings) the bottom was still in good shape (after 3
years and a couple of months, using Petit Ultima SR) so I changed the zincs,
did some other maintenance, cleaned the waterline stains, and the yard
relaunched and only charged me for a short haul at $4 per foot.

Hi Guys,

 

Okay so I've got a survey with haulout scheduled for this coming Saturday.
during my conversation with the surveryor, he brought to light an
interesting point.  I had asked if he would be doing the sea trial before or
after haul out and he said that it would be better to do it after because if
the bottom were fouled, we wouldn't bet a good sea trial.  He said if haul
first and it is then we could get it cleaned, and I asked "so, we could
clean it?"  he said well you should talk to the broker.  So I did and he
said it common practice for the boat to be powerwashed on a haul out.  I
asked who would pay for that?  He said I would be responsible for that.  I
said so, if this thing fails inspection, I'll paying for the owners
powerwashing?  He said that it was common...

 

I'm thinking what $4 a foot to wash it, then haul it...  I knew I had to pay
for a haulout, but ...  is that really common to be on the hook for a power
washing?  I mean it is what it is I've just never seen this conversation
come up before...

 

Danny
