I went with the hand sanding method on my 37 simply because there were no other options, (like soda blasting) available; its back breaking dirty work and takes forever...; I ended up buying a really good orbital sander with a vacuum system, (about $1,100.00), which worked well using 80 (and sometimes 60) grit paper; about the only thing I can say for it is that I became really intimate with my hull...knowing every blemish, blister or ding does have some value when you're faring etc., If I had a choice I would have easily gone for the soda blasting....: Richard s/v Bushmark4: 1985 C&C 37 CB; Ohio River, Mile 584.4 Richard N.

Opinions and experiences of the list are welcome before I proceed with it (or stay with the sanding method).
