Fred Schroth is an animal.
In a good way.
If you don't want to pay for perfection, don't go to Fred. I'm not saying you'll pay a lot compared to others, but you'll get perfection every time. His reputation amongst the sailing community is top notch. He's one of those people that really cares about boats - he gets all emotional and wants to see them look their best.
Fred's attention to detail is incredible - the bottom job paint was beautiful. The first day out after having the sides buffed and waxed and the new paint on the bottom - we got our very first compliment on the boat. Someone sailed by and said, "what a pretty boat". That made our day!
Fred's also one of those guys that you get to know. Drop by his shop and shoot the bull with him and you'll make fast friends. Don't be in a hurry and you'll get a lot more out of the experience than a fast bottomed boat.
