Bottom paint? yes or no

I was wondering should I bottom paint my boat?

It would be kept in fresh water for 4 months at most. Should I get the bottom painted?

Would you please stop asking stupid questions.

just pull the boat once a month and clean the bottom. i left my old formula in the water for a season or 2. It's not too bad to clean.

where you thinking of keeping it?

i'm sure they have outside racks left.....none indoor though.

You may actually get a better price than 1600 cause a month has passed already.
