The last time we painted the bottom was August 2008. We haven't used her much or wiped her down so I think that contributed to the fouling seen as she was hauled. Paint is Trinidad SR.
Prop was a mess.

Pretty boat. We have a Cape Dory 36, also designed by Carl Alberg. FWIW, when we haul, the marina puts a line between the forward and aft straps to keep the forward strap from sliding. Perhaps not necessary in your case, but it sure provides a little peace of mind. Have a great season!
