How long had the boat been in the water? My experience has been that the bottom paint works pretty well go a couple years. When I scrubbed my own bottom, I would check & clean it when I cleaned the bottom. I presume the diver I hire does the same thing.

Removed the cover this morning.  Certainly it was not clogged, a number of the  holes in the strainer were clear.  A number were not.  Seems like it could become a matter of concern over time.  The boat has been in the water from May 15th till November 24th.   The photo shows the organic material build up viewed from the inner side of the cover.
