The first year I owned my boat we had black man do it 600 bucks plus 175 for the out drive. I have done it once my self since then. Any paint you buy at west marine will be of low quality. Blackman gets there pain from a place where you have to have a commercial licence to buy it. I have a buddy with a commercial licence buy mine for me. Most guys I know take there to Mexico to get the bottom painted. half the price and way better paint. No enviro freaks on that side of the boarder. Joe
