A question to my viewers

A question to my viewers.
It is about twin keel craft taking the ground and antifouling.
When a twin keeled craft takes the ground. It will rest on its keels.
Thats the idea.
But the keels like the part of the boat below the waterline is painted with antifouling. To my thinking the paint that gets rubbed against the ground will wear off.
What do the boat owner do about that???
Do they care?
If any of my viewers got an answer please tell me.
Same thing when a boat is put on the hard to get antifouling. The part of the keel that is resting on the ground cannot get painted.
In a shipyard they paint that part when they lift the boat to launch her othervise there will be marine growt at that unpainted place.
I am curius. PLease tell me.

Sven Yrvind

Hi My name is Sven Yrvind. I design, build and cruise small boats. 1962 I left Sweden in 15 feet converted Blekingseka. I soon found out that there was room for improvement. To understand the basic I began to study mathematics and engenering. 1968 I sailed to England via many contries in a converted 13 feet rowing boat. People told me I be more happy on a bigger boat. November that year I found a wreck an old steam launch build 1885 I converted her to a staysail schooner and sailed her to Rio de Janeiro. That voyage advised me that a bigger boat do not bring happiness, happiness is an inside thing. I designed a 6 meter doubble ender built her in my mother basement. Tried to sail around Cape Horn with her but was capsized and pitchpoled. Later I built an 5.9 meter boat in her I rounded Cape Horn in the southern winter June 1980. I have continued to design, build, and cruise small boats often in high latitudes. Please support me on my donation button on my site yrvind.com
