Spring Make-Ready: Bottom Paint
Spring is finally in the air and the "winter that wouldn't go away" may finally be over. As we begin the mad race to get the boat ready for the season, we already feel behind schedule because it's been one of those winter, winter, winter, summer years with almost no spring. The good news is that the National Weather Center is forecasting a warmer than usual April. We'll take it !
With spring, boaters everywhere are gazing
longingly at the harbor and beyond, thinking
about.... Bottom Paint.
Yes, bottom paint. What to use, how to prepare the hull, how much to put on, how to clean it mid-season, what is new this year, are they really going to ban copper ?
If you are asking these questions or need expert advise, see the professionals at Rex or the Cove ships store. With over 75 years of experience, they can tell you what seems to work best and how to do the job correctly. Each store stocks all the materials required, at very competitive prices.
