Last year I had the deck painted on my boat. This was replacing a previous (bad) job.

The cost (Cdn$) quoted for hull was approx $100 / foot. The rough quote (if you do not do much of your own prep work) is about double that for the deck.

In my case the qiuote was approx 2600 for awlgripping the hull and approx 4500 to do decks.

These are Canadian funds.

Best of luck,

Mike
