hull before and after

Hi
When we bought our secondhand Yam480 we didn't even realise the hull had been antifouled - nothing like doing research into what you are buying!

Anyway over the last 18 months it started to flake off and was looking pretty awful. A nice man at Marchwood Yacht Club has kindly spent the last four days getting the hull back into shape and it looks 200% better. A few scratches but considering the boat is 10 years old much less embarrassing.

The 1st picture is when we bought it and the second what it looked like tonight.

Cheers
Neil
