Ericson 29: Diving the Bottom
It is TIME to have the bottom cleaned on the Ericson 29 again. In fact, the last time the bottom was cleaned was about 9 months ago. I am actually behind schedule.
The condition of the algae on the bottom actually determines the time more than anything. And, it is definitely time. As seen in the image, there is an entire bustling community of crustaceans living and working on the hull. Not exactly desirable for good hull speed.
I must call the diver to come and clean the bottom of the boat. More importantly, a haul-out and new bottom paint has to happen soon.
