Stripping bottom paint

[jasoncooperpcola]

Well I did not finish it yesterday. Thunderstorms ran me back inside. The rest of the country is going thru a drought and Florida the Sunshine State has gotten rain every day for the past month? I am finding a little bit of gelcoat damage that was covered by the bottom paint based on the fiberglass being blue inside the damaged spots. Its mostly on the strakes. I have found blue green yellow and red bottom paint in different areas. I will get what I can with the stripper and pressure washer. But i think i will have to sand the entire keel to get rid of the bottom paint there. I am starting back at welding class today so I will have the weekend days only to work on it now as i deliver pizza at night.
