If I understand, the yard is the only one to have done bottom work on this boat. You paid the yard to do the bottom. One of two things happened:

- it is impossible to properly paint the bottom of your boat, or
- the boat yard took your money, but lacked the expertise or failed to exercise proper care in doing your bottom.

I am guessing on the second option. I would tell the yard to refund my money or expect legal action and then do it. This business abounds with shitheels willing to steal your money. Don’t be a victim.

However, if you specified the primer, the paint and exactly how the bottom was to be prepped, and did not heed the yard’s advice, well that would be different. Given your newness to boating, I doubt that is the case.
