I agree with you but if you leave it in with no bottom paint the water does penetrate the gel coat and fiberglass. Other then the looks of it if you leave your boat in you should bottom paint. boat will be faster with the bottom paint over the course of the year, won't yellow like it does with out it......

I spend my time at the beach srubbing the side of my boats when I am in the water to get all the crap off the side and bottom.

Mines never in more then 3 days at a time unless I might have vacation for a week... I know leaving it is is bad.... That's why I told him to pull it every weekend if he don't want bottom paint
