Hi i am in the process of purchasing a colvic 22 seaworker 1989 angling boat upon lifting out of the water blistering was noted along most of the hull about 3mm in dia the price was then dramatically reduced. £500 was agreed just because the owner wanted to get rid of it.first question is (1) should i buy it at this ridiculously cheap price ? (2) what is best to get the maximum life out of the hull,reading on here seems to be sandblasting then anti fouling how often should i do this and what anti fouling paint would you recomend. finaly what would you estimate the life of the hull if this was done on a regular basis, sorry one more would getting hot vac drying without treatment significaly prolong the life of the hull before antifouling many thanks in advance
