Yes, I was painting before. I was just wondering about taking a boat that
spent its life in sal****er and what effects, if any would happen, running
it in Lake Erie. Its my first boat. Its not really big, I mostly kept it
in the bay, fishing for stripers. I have heard a lot about the choppier
waves in the Great Lakes.

Thanks for all of the advice.

You weren't painting the bottom before! I've found that changing salinity
is good but that anything in any water need to be protected.

Sometime changing salinity is good - I spent 20 months in the Delaware and
went to NYC via the Atlantic and seems that all the bio-stuff didn't like
the change. Ultimately, if you stay anywhere you need protection - gotta
fight that evolution stuff!

I am moving my boat from sal****er to the Great Lakes. Is there anything
in
particular I have to do differently? Also, if I plan on keeping it in a
slip, should I paint the bottom?

Thanks
