UPDATE*** Bottom paint it is! After an exhaustive search, a relative came through with a guy he has used for years. Working on all of the ideas Henry offered as well for the B3. Thank you again everyone!
Just printed out your response Henry. Plan to haul it with me when I get my quote on her first bottom paint job. Thank you for the detailed advice. I appreciate it!

Thank you for the advice. I emailed my local marina. Appears they are month-to-month at $6 a foot. Probably a small price to pay to avoid bottom growth. Leave it in a week or so, pull it out and clean, repeat :-) Thank you again!
