I would do it myself. The only reason to do it is the personal value the boat holds for you...way more meaningful to do the work yourself than pay someone to do it. That being said it is a LOT of work done properly...thats why it is so expensive. In my opinion though its worth the effort, but I enjoy working on boats.
