I see the boat is a cream color under all the white stuff looks like you sanded the whole boat will you repaint or try to bring back the shine on the cream color...

The boat is a cream color, although when I bought the boat a couple months ago the previous owner had the outside hull sprayed with allgrip. I'm going to roll and tip the interior a bright white. I'm using Pettit EasyPoxi color #3175, I'm probably going to use a sandstone color for the non-skid. I will continue the pictures.
Thanks for the question.

No, they just didn't look very nice. If you notice the stress getting worse or if it is in a radius you may have a void in the glass behind the gel-coat. If it is a void it may be worth repairing.
