Arrival in North Carolina, some bottom paint and a spash

After leaving California, I stayed in touch with Bob and with the driver. There were three Montys on the tractor trailer all headed east. Since I was furthest east, I would be the last stop.
I was very lucky to arrange to find a marine surplus store that just happened to have a 10 tone travel lift to pluck Seafrog and my trailer off the towing rig.
A little bit of road grime to clean up....Putting on the tape was like drawing a straight line around a watermellon. I didn't have a third person to show how one friend held my "hose level" while I went around and marked the hull.

After some boring coats of epoxy... time to refresh!




Then some even more boring coats of antifouling......,


........it was time to take Seafrog home for a nice wash and wax.

Now it was time to see if my water line marks matched the actual water line!!
