Copper coat in Darwin NT
Hi all. Going north in the winter and stopping in Darwin. Would be a good opportunity to get the boat antifouled. Any recommendations for yards to do copper coating? Probable best to PM, especially if the advice is for places to avoid! Yards that let you stay on board would be top of list!
Thanks in advance. Cheers, Ross

From all I have read, better to get done in Queensland.
