Bottom Paint/Haulout Grand Bahamas/Nassau?

Hello All -

We want to get our bottom painted before we leave the Bahamas. We're currently in Spanish Wells, and unfortunately R&B, the only gig in town, can't take a boat with a 6' draft. I'm wondering if anyone knows of any yards with a good reputation in either the Freeport area or the Nassau area that could raise our waterline by a couple of inches and paint the bottom. There are a few yards - I just don't know anything about them.

Thanks!

Chris

Try Bradford Marine in Freeport, they have the capability to do what you want. 6' draft is no problem.
