Rick, where are you? Because around here 6 months would get you some serious growth.

So, would it be wise to use muriatic acid to strip bottom paint? My V has bottom paint and I plan on removing it when I get the time.

My 84 Wellcraft 248 was a virgin hull. I wish I had never put that stuff on her. She looks so much better without out and it turned out that even though I had a slip, because of motor replacements, she was on a trailer most of the time anyway :'(

If you keep the boat in the water paint if not don't. Mine is virgin. I only wax it. Just like MJ. Bill Mc

HAMMER...PLEASE DON'T paint that hull...there's NO USE IN IT...you're spendin' $$$ you don't have to, settin' up a maintenance issue you don't have to...SLOWIN' your top-end down...people paint their hulls because they spend most or all the time in the water and THEY HAVE TO DO IT!!...You DON'T have to....Dodge this bullet... ;)...

Yeah, I dont want to paint the hull with anti-foul either. Its a big thing here I guess with all the other boats in the boat yard. Just wanna do all the hull repairs sealer her and then repaint the hull white. Thats if the weather warms up. Running against the clock here with the boat yard, Boat was lifted and stacked for free. Thinking I might be able to keep the boat at the yard for 3-weeks then it will start costing me.
Here is the boat on jacks now. Plenty of room to work on the dings, scrapes and two gouges.
