T&T: Last minute bottom paint?

[JIM AGUE]

Yup, just paint those little squares while the boat is on the slings before
it
goes back into the water. The paint will be dry enough in a few minutes.

The only thing I never liked about this arrangement was being under the boat
while it's being suspended by the slings. I take a close look at those things
before grabbing the paintbrush.

The yard where most of my work has been done before never applied paint on
the way to splashing, leading me to believe that they moved the blocks and
painted the keel bottom before splashing.
