Default Fresh bottom paint

Got the bottom squared away before the snow hit.

Me and my drinkin' buddy went down, had a couple beers, and "guesstimated" at the waterline.

Regards,

I think you need to take the paint up the hull a little more near the transom.

Using the teak handles on the windshield looks like you could just pick the whole boat up and dip in a tub of bottom paint!

Help me out on the functionality of these please.
