I have three questions. First, can anyone recommend a contractor for bottom painting in Florida? Hoping to get answers on both cost & quality. Second, what's a good spec for paint? Sanding then primer (I assume 2 primer coats are adequate), then what works best for salt water use (what have you found performs best, manufacturer/product and # of coats). I see a lot of folks use Interlux, but also refs to Petit and Sea Hawk.
Looking for opinions & success stories!
Thanks, Jeff (not fast Jeff)

Re: Bottom paint in Florida
Where are you in Florida?
Trilux held up for about a year and a half.
If you are by me in Miami, I recommend you drive your boat as far north as possible to have any work done![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)
