I thought I'd pass along that my C250 WB has been kept year round in fresh water with the ballast tank full now for over 5 years. In July, I had it hauled out and the bottom painted (using Micron CSC again) after about two years in the water since the last paint touch-up. This time it was the complete repaint job. Happily, there are no blisters (with the exception of the rudder) and the bottom looks to be in very good shape. Centerboard cabling also looks very good.

Sailin' on ........
