Sand and more sand a five year old boat should have more than one coat of paint on it it sounds like you will need to sand it down. do not sand off the gel coat only the paint!it is a dirty job but one that you could do yourself with a powersander and some time save the 1000 dollar yard charge! paint it with a good {i like interlux ablative paint ) paint and at least two coats for good. What is the bottom of a boat called? the bottom of the boat is called hull. it is the part which directly comes in contact with the water. hull can again be divided into two parts, which are the bow and stern. the bow is the front part of the hull while the stern is the rear part. the design of the hull can vary from one boat to other.. If the boat’s bottom has been painted before, it is vital to remove any loose and flaking old paint. the new paint won’t last long if you paint it on the old one. to clean such paints, sanding is an effective way. so, sand out the entire surface with 80-grit sandpaper before applying any paint on the bottom.. 
sailboat on the bottom My boat takes about two hours to cover, so the first areas were already dry enough to overcoat. i quickly rolled on the black coat and called it a day. after the paint dried i moved the boat stands for a final time, applied a couple coats of interprotect and painted the pads with black bottom paint.. Boom attachment. the forward end of the boom attaches to a mast just below the sail, with a joint called the gooseneck.the gooseneck pivots allowing the other end of the boom to move freely. the clew (back corner) of the sail attaches to the free end of the boom. the entire foot of the sail may be attached to the boom or just the clew. if the foot is not attached to the boom, the rig is known.
