Is this bottom paint? Hull (above the waterline)? Deck?

When my boat was at Hinckley in Stuart, I saw them paint a couple of boats. The results looked really good, and I watched the level of prep put into them. That Hinckley yard was one of very few on the east coast I would go back to - they were fair, attentive, and professional.

Yup, they did some touch up on my boat.
The only caution is, bring your check book.

I'd strongly consider Owl Creek Boatworks over in Alva. I have seen some of their work, as well as their facility and have met some happy customers. They've been at it awhile.
