During a bottom cleaning, the diver thought there was an issue with the bottom paint as he felt it was harder to clean than the previous year.  The paint type was different than 2023, so we moved the boat to SYC, shorthauled the boat and had reps from the paint manufacturer to inspect the bottom.  Result was that paint was fine, it's just a different feel from the prior paint
