Bottom boat paint

[mkalink]

I was wondering where to take my boat to get bottom paint done and roughly what it cost for a 20 ft

I had South Shore Marine in Huron paint the bottom of my 31' Contender. They weren't the cheapest but I feel they are the best and pay close attention to detail. They applied 5 coats of barrier epoxy and 2 coats of VC Offshore bottom paint. Its been 4 years and all I do is touch it up and put on a very light coat at the water line, as this is where the paint gets most of its wear. When I pull it in the fall, I power wash it, hit the water line with a brush, and put it away. For a 20' boat I don't see it costing more than $1500 for prep, barrier coat and paint. I do recommend the VC Offshore paint, it is supposed to last 10 years before reapplying it with minimal touch up.
