Re: Bottom paint?
"Would you consider buying a boat with bottom paint on Winni? Is this a negative option for a freshwater only boat? Does it hurt or help resale? It is not a go-fast boat but more of a cruiser so mph loss is not an issue. "
Because bottom paint isn't really needed in fresh water and because once it's on you're stuck repainting the bottom every 3 or so years, I consider it a negative ($$ and hassle for little benefit). That said if I were looking a nice used boat that had bottom paint and the price was right I wouldn't be unduly deterred. I'd use it as a bargaining point to chip away at the price.
