The Hull Report | Wave Keep Marine

Every report covers

Growth grade: Light, Moderate, Heavy, or Neglected, and where it's concentrated.

Paint: how your bottom paint is holding up.

Running gear: props, shafts, struts, rudders, lower units.

Thru-hulls, intakes, and transducers: clear, or not.

Every anode: percent remaining, tracked visit to visit.

Anything new: damage or problems, flagged with a photo.

Over time, the reports add up to a history of your hull. That's useful at survey time, at haul-out, and when you sell.

Where it's building up: Waterline at the stern, trim tabs, and the lower unit

Paint condition: Ablative paint wearing thin along the chines. Still protecting, but worth planning a fresh coat.
Running gear: Prop and lower unit cleaned. Light barnacle start on the cavitation plate, removed.
Thru-hulls and intakes: Raw-water intake and livewell pickup cleared. Clear flow.
Transducers: Transom transducer wiped clean. No damage.
Damage found: Small gelcoat chip, port bow, about 2 in. above the waterline. Photo attached.
Follow-up: Lower-unit anode is getting low. We'd plan to replace it on the next visit.
