    Seahawk AF 33 ablative bottom paint

    ^^^part of my lower units are painted, so I don't have the growth issue. One season, the yard missed painting them and I was dealing with constant scrubbing.

    long-haul tow Marlin 300

    Just an FYI My insurance only covers the boat when being towed if it is on its own trailer. I don't have a trailer, so I make sure the hauler has insurance and it covers my boat when it is on their trailer.
