A little over a year ago I bought a 1981 Master Marine 28 footer that had apparently spent it's whole life out of the water (no sign of bottom paint). She needed paint, electronics, pumps, rocket launcher, batteries etc.
While I had her out of the water I faired the bottom , applied 5 coats of barrier coat and 3 of an ablative paint with 2 extra on the waterline. The guy that said that ablative paint is great if the boat is used is right, but if you don't use her I'm not so sure. She sits in the water behind my house and as they say it's self cleaning it just looks a little crazy at times. It must be working because anywhere I used Pettit's system on the tabs and mtor.I have muscles and other growthonthe metal in a few weeks but the bottom is good . Have a great and safe Christmas and New Year.
