Boat Care & Repair

Boat yards handle the big jobs. Boats must come out of the water for a number of reasons. One of the most common reasons is to have the bottom painted with anti-fouling paint. Fiberglass boats that are not bottom painted or wait too long between paint jobs have a tendency to develop blisters that can lead to major structural damage. Most experts say every two years is the ideal schedule to have this done. This is a good time to check on your zincs, too. Other reasons for hauling a boat may be to paint the hull, do other major refurbishing of the boat or having a survey done of the boat.
