Charlie:
There is a another way to have the bottom paint removed.it is called
'dry ice blasting'.it is much cleaner and safer than soda blasting.
When I bought my boat in 2006, I had the bottom 'dry ice
blasted'..took the contractor approx. 4 hours.removed 22 years
of
Had our hull sofa blasted 4 years ago took the guy a hour roughly and he
changed 700 con to do the job no damage done to the gel coat

I should point out that the most important component was the turbo spray
head. This allowed lifting the paint without gouging into the gel coat.
BTW, it was two *tanks*, not yanks, of gas. Remember, spell check is
your worst enema!

My pressure washer is a Briggs and Stratton 2200 psi, 2.2 gpm unit. If
I remember correctly, it only took two full yanks of gas. This only
worked because my yard owner didn't care as long as I put a tarp down.
I'm not at all sure how much runoff I had. I tried to catch as much as
I could.
I always wondered if this would work. How many PSI was your pressure washer?

I just did the diy style this winter went to boat once a weekend starting in
January for 2-3 hours. Scrapped whole hull 30 years of paint C 40

I had my hull soda blasted about 4 years ago and it was a very positive
experience--all done in about 4 hours and cost less than $1000 as I recall.

The last time that I did Corsair (1970 Redwing 35), I used my pressure
washer and a turbo nozzle. Stripped the paint off without affecting the
barrier coat. I put down a tarp to collect the bottom paint (Micron
CSC), but the yard didn't really care. I got the tarp from Harbor
Freight and

Charlie,
I just finished this process about two weeks ago.
Each year because of the flaking I would sand the hull, getting rid of
some old buildup, but inevitably the newly applied antifouling paint
would flake off more of the old stuff and mess up the paint. I finally
had enough, had the

I had my C 24 Soda blasted in 2016. Awesome! I then did 3-4 coats of
interlux barrier coat, then ablative anti-fouling paint.
I did some fairing and minor sanding. Fixes a keel smile with rebed, too.
Surveyor this past spring gave me a passing grade on all.
It's way easier for sure. And can

I went with the hand sanding method on my 37 simply because there were no other
options, (like soda blasting) available
I had a yard in Mattapoisett blast the bottom of Rum Runner. They uses
walnut shells and I believe they charged me $1000. Well worth it. No
impact on the gel coat whatsoever. In fat they commented that the
bottom looked as though it just came out of the showroom when they were
done.

I need to have several/many coats of bottom paint removed (its starting to
seriously flake off) and am considering soda blasting as both faster and
possibly cheaper than the 60 hours of labor that the
yard estimates it would take to sand it off.(~$5000!).
