Hey guys I'm getting along good on my 77 champion rebuild. Got the motor off. Got the hull separated and now I am working on the transom. I'm looking ahead a couple steps and would like to get some information on repainting my boat. I would really like to put a new gel coat on it but I know it's easier said than done. The old coat is pretty rough shape and I just don't think there is any saving it. I know it needs to be dewaxed and sanded down but is gel coat somthing I can fit into my budget? I want to do this all myself so a shop is out of the question. I have seen alot of boats painted but I just like the flakey gel coat look. What are your thoughts on the two. Also any links on step by step would be appreciated
