Hotbyte, you posed some good questions. I would be interested in that answer too.
Regarding the blisters, we have had a number of fg boats and all have developed blisters. They are kept in the water but they bottom has always been painted to keep the growth at a manageable level. Notwithstanding that, water seems to find a way in. Even if cleaned an painted once a year. Now these are older boats, like 1980s models so previous owners might not have been as diligent as we are. I wouldn't expect a MH to blister since water exposure is limited.
Mockturtle you noted the repair was fairly expensive. I assume it couldn't be fixed with something like 3Ms 5200 which in the boating world is magic. Sounds as if you had to have some real fiberglass work done.
Regarding Coach House, did they ever make a Class C with the cab/bunk over the driver's area? All I have found thus far are slicked back, no bunk over driver. If I am going to make the investment I need sleeping area. Thanks
