Opend up the winter cover Sunday to find to my suprise a good portion of my top Deck blisterd. There must have been water trapped in the cover and over the winter it blisterd the paint. I can't understand this happening now. I painted the boat 3 years ago and still coverd it the same as always.
I guess it must have been a bad winter!

Bummer! It does happen quite a bit to paint jobs if the cover is left on to long into the warmer weather. When I know a boat may stay covered for extended periods we lay line in zig zags all over the covered areas so far that has kept us out of trouble. I have a vent tube made with 4" PVC pipe wrapped in carpet that goes under my cover from the stern into the cockpit area on the outer end I have a Solar fan that keeps air flowing all year round. Something always goes to hell without good ventilation.
