    Getting handicapped people onto and off a boat.

    Bottom Paint Dilemma

    There is often a service around that scrubs bottoms. If you check with your marina they can most likley give you a name. for me that is much better than bottom paint. Just one more plus to the trailerable trawler. C-Dorys RULE John Schuler
