| New to the website. Wondered if anyone could recommend good bottom paint. I run in brackish to salt water (Kennebeck River, Maine). I moor the boat during the season and bring her on land (shrink wrapped) for the winter. |

Does anyone have experience or feedback in using "Easy On" Bottom Paint? It's evidently clear and 15oz. cost $60.

| I need to redo my bottom paint (VC17) and want to lift the boat up to get the complete surface. I have access to 4 boat stands. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this safely? Do not want to remove the trailer just raise it off the bunks. |
