I purchased a"19" a year ago, and sailed her 'off the trailer' last
summer. This year I have rented a slip at a local marina (freshwater
lake)(it's IOWA!). My brother-in-law believes I should put anti-fouling
paint on the bottom before I put it in the slip. I have a deep blue
hull, and really want to paint only the portion which is underwater,
hence the question. How do I determine the waterline on the hull?
Also, any advise about type of paint, hull preparation for the paint,
etc. would be most appreciated. I've never done anything like this
before.
