Re: Swithching to hydraulic steering- Anyone done this on their own?

One thing to consider with not disconnecting lower helm... If anything falls against wheel it may lock up your steering.

Bottom painting

What is a good price for a total bottom paint job? Sandblasting,etching primer, base coat and 3 coats of bottom paint by a boatyard experienced with the issues involved with Marinettes?
