If the Citra strip is removing the paint, then continue using it. After a section bubbles I would blast the paint remover off with a gas powered pressure washer. I assume your boat is outside on a trailer. Be very careful though. wear long pants long sleeves, rubber loves and glasses hat and a hat. that stuff will fly everywhere and will burn if it gets on your skin. Do a section at a time. It makes the labor easy and fast. It won't take off the gel coat, which is probably intact. that will have to be sanded with your orbital sander, starting with 80 grit and working up top 150. I think you have found boat restoring is slow hard work, but in the end is well worth the trouble.
