Moving up to the "S Class"

I did a post a few days ago about the haulout. Hampton does this to have the props balanced and treated, as well as apply anti fouling to the running gear. 

Isn't that prop beautiful? I was not even aware there are "classes" for props. This is performed by Kreuger Propeller in Seattle ( krugerpropeller.com/). Basically "S Class" is the highest standard (hey, kind of like a Mercedes, eh?). You can read about it here if you'd like.

The yard Pettit Barnacle Buster to the struts, rudders, shafts, kelp cutters and, stabilizer base plates and trim tabs.  The bow and stern thrusters were coated with Seahawk Tuff Stuff epoxy and three coats of Interlux Trilux 33. 

(The bottom paint is Seahawk and was done at the factory.)

This is all standard in a Hampton build. Yaaay for us.
