In Response To: Re: Bottom paint (Capt. Dave Kosh)

Ok, gotta chime in on this one. I sold my home on Tampa Bay, and have to take my B-28 off my lift and keep her in a wet slip at a marina. The old bottom paint is shot and is peeling in spots. Should I have the bottom paint stripped completely, have her epoxy coated then anti-fouled. Or have her sanded and anti-fouled. Ablative paint is something I have never had to deal with before. What route should I go? I got a quote for 2K for a complete sand off and recoat with epoxy and bottom paint. Comments/help always appreciated.
