Yeah, the "chisel and hammer" scares me. Even my diver's email to me about using a "chisel" got my attention...
(What if he were to miss, and chisel out a part of the hull???
Is he responsible for damages???)) :cussing:
So, from all these replies to my original post, I think I may end up selling the boat! :cry:
Oh, OK, I may be kidding about that part? NOT! :naughty:
Or, I could take it out on the Gulf, scuttle it, and collect the insurance?
(Oh, wait, I'd better insure it first???)
Seriously! I get the gist of what everybody is saying about: "to paint or not to paint".
Somehow, however, when my diver suggests it, I'm thinking it would make life easier for him??? (Notice the question marks at the end of these sentences...)
In any event, I don't plan on pulling the boat out of the water before the end of the year to have it painted (my choice) as we approach prime sailing time here in the Tampa Bay area. Maybe in 2016, or I'll sell it, or I'll sink it??? (Again question marks...) :dance:
THANKS GUYS FOR ALL THE FEED BACK! HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!
