The cost per hour for labor may vary somewhat, most yards in
Annapolis are a bit under or over $100/hr for skilled labor.
This really does not tell you much about what it would cost to do the
work, as the # of hours, and the
parts needed, are the biggest factors. There are many competent workers in this area, and you can get about anything you need quickly, which effects the cost.
I am in the
marine service biz, and our best customers are those that have had
boats for awhile, and want quality
work done, without shortcuts. They understand that while a hack (or an owner) may be able to do job x in 5 hours, to do it right, and have it look right after the fact with no loose ends, and no damage to the boat during the process, will take a good bit longer.
So like most everything else,
shopping on
price alone is not very helpful, reputation means more, IMHO. Pick the jobs you can do yourself, and hire the right folks to do the rest.
