I'd disagree with that contention. I purchased a 3/4 full roll, gun and some supplies from a fellow employee who had sold his boat. I watched some very helpful videos online and really only had a few thin spots first time out of the gate, but for my 20 foot center console with T-top, it's not all that complicated a job. I can get mine done in a single morning and put away and definitely save half the cost of paying someone. Having said that, if I had the $300 to burn, sure I'd have someone do it. I'd rather take that money saved and have the boat winterized and ready to rock and roll come spring. If I had room, I'd get a big arse cover-it and not do anything, without a man cave; I could at least sit in the boat on a milder winter day and have a beer.
