    naha1976 new boat owner

    I'm a new boat owner and I'm looking for some help with what to use on the hull. I've sanded it down to what i think is the original jellcoat. what would you all recommend. I have to fill and prime it and also paint it. All suggestions are very welcome.

    Fill it where needed and then paint, priming depends on the paint system you use.
    Make sure you haven't sanded through your gelcoat! If you did, repair with some epoxy.
