Skunk is right!! I forgot to ask 

 if you knew what type of paint was already on your boat.  I used Interlux CSC, an ablative paint which is a multi year paint.  I think that paint goes now, I bet almost $300 a gallon.  Back then I was paying $100.  My friend Lloyd who has the Wellcraft, uses the West Marine paint and he swears by it, I don't know which one he uses, but  I've helped take her out and she was clean.
