NJjohnmontauk17:

Is there a reason to sandblast and start from gelcoat versus sanding the antifoul smooth and recoating? I guess those are the options that I'm facing.

1. Sandblast all bottom coat off, repair, and then redo barrier coat + antifoul

2. Sand smooth existing antifoul. Patch and fair dings/divots/scrapes. Apply barrier coat to repaired areas. Then antifoul.

Thanks,
Ken
