Yes, she has paint for a lake and fresh water right now. She was painted before I bought her and the people who sold it did not know as the person before them had the bottom painted. She is coming up on 3 years anyway, so it is time to paint. Yes, I would assume and will ask as the paint that is there would not be suitable for brackish or salt water. Thanks for the knowledge.

They will surely be able to get it. One of the most popular brands in the industry. Offshore version is a paint that is very hard and does not slowly peel off like an ablative paint is designed. Ablatives should only be used in fresh water as a 1 or 2 season application. Good luck! 8-) er
