I am thinking about buying a 55 ft yacht and I am wondering how frequently I need to clean or paint the bottom of the boat. I am used to a smaller boat that is garage stored and I am wondering what kind of maintenece I will have with a boat kept in the water at the mairina. I am located in Los Angeles.
The hule is fiberglass and it sits in salt water.

hukech asked:


I sail yachts recreationally and I was wondering what the international law was regarding having guns on board for the reason of self defense in US or international waters?

I plan to circumnavigate the globe in the future and am hoping for expert knowledge from martime lawyers, US coast guard, navy, or maritime security experts.
