New bottom paint
Our boat was definitely the largest (not heaviest) one they'd ever lifted. By the looks on their faces and confirming it afterward, Chris and I were relieved to see her nestled on the stands. It's kinda nuts to see your home suspended in mid air, especially when it belongs in the water. It's just unnatural. They didn't expect our keel, which is rather large, and they had to change plans mid haul to put us in a trench space because they didn't have tall enough stands to acomodate us. Javier and all the marina staff there are so professional nice, and we really enjoyed our time on the hard, which by nature is hard....
The job itself was handled by Greg and Mary of Puerto Escondido Marine. Their guys did good work on the boat, but due to personal circumstances on both our end and theirs, there was definitely a lapse in communication that could have been better. All in all we were satisfied with our bottom job and able to splash back in the water as soon as possible. Total time for the work to get done was a week, bute had to wait out a Norther, so we had an extra week on the hard.
