[C38] Bottom Paint

[D. R. Strong]

Hey Steve: We pull every 4 years at Christmas and have Cree at Berkeley 
Marine Center apply one coat of Trinidad. Diver comes every 4 months 
with instructions to be gentle and make the bottom last a long time. We 
sail a lot too, and that helps. We don't race, however.
regards, Don
