Do you need a complete bottom job?Each time I repaint the bottom, I wet sand 
with the sanding sponge, let it dry a day or two and put the same, or 
compatible, bottom paint on.Don't need to get to bare bottom unless changing 
paints or if it's so thick that lots of chunks come off.RonWild CheriC&C 30-1STL

Two things I don't do: replace a shingle roof and a bottom job.  Gladly pay 
someone else to do those.

This is a two part query about doing the bottom of a sailboat by a first-timer.

The high pressure spray that removed the previous saltwater growth of 1.5 years 
(during the survey in July) also removed part of the protective coat of 
anti-fouling that was left. I thought I would get around to re-doing the bottom 
this past summer/fall. It didn’t happen. Now I'm approaching winter and 
contemplating a haul-out in November (in rainy Vancouver) or waiting until 
spring. But I’m not sure how much more work would be involved by putting it off 
until spring. Would like to hear some other opinions on this.

I also have a marina telling me soda blasting is the way to go. And based on 
the hell that is involved with a project like this, my lack of time and the 
weather, I’m contemplating it.
