I would say you at least need to sand the trouble spots and coat. I had the yard do this for me for a few years before the bottom job on my last boat. they charge about 11 per foot to tape and paint and then time and material to sand. I think it was costing about 500 to 600 a year for 33 foot boat. Danny

I would consider diving the bottom sometime in late July.

I just bought the boat in October, so I'm not sure the last time it was done. I'd rather spend the money on some other things this season, but if it's a must, I'll do it. Any thoughts are appreciated.
