I pulled my boat after 5 months in the water. The hull was much dirtier than I expected. Here is a photo of hull with part of it cleaned. I used a pressure washer about 4 hours after coming out of the water. The growth came off easily.

When I first got my SeaRay I didn't have a trailer and the bottom did not have paint on it. After the first week in the water it looked just like your pictures. Luckily, I was able to build a trailer for it after a couple of months and it's been stored on a trailer ever since.
