My dad died from Lung Cancer and didn't smoke. But he sanded his copper bronze bottom paint. (hmmmm) TThat stuff was really nasty)
I don't like doing bottoms. I do some touch up mid-season though. (g;oves and mask on)
I wish I had one of those air-lift systerms to elevate my boat and not have bottom paint at all. But for now, I pay the yard a couple bills to paint it in the spring as part of their recommisioning
