Where's the lift for the trawler?

===

The trawler only come out of the water once every two or three years.
It weighs about 70,000 lbs and even some boat yard travel lifts have
trouble with it.


Do you or do you hire a diver to scrape the bottom on a regular basis?
When I had the Navigator in Florida I used to have a diver scape the
bottom monthly. Of course my situation was different. It sat there in a
slip, unused, during the summer months.

Yes, we have a diver that we use to clean the bottom every month or
two. Since we are about 10 miles up river the water here is a bit
less salty than what you'd experience on the east coast, especially
during the rainy season in the summer. We still have barnacles
however.

Very very nice , Wayne!
