If anyone could help me I just bought my first boat and I do not know where to start on the repairing....
I have done numerous work on automobiles but none on fiberglass.... This boat is a older model 15ft Starcraft Del Rey edition and the outside is in decent condition but I want to repaint it to make the apperance look presentable....

Where do I start? What kind of Epoxy do I use? Paint? I have been told about sanding the boat but what grit? I really need help with step by step instructions... I have been told about Interlux but is there anything a little cheaper that looks just as good? Also, what paint do I use on the hull? Where is the hull? Do I have to use a primer if I use Epoxy?

I am open for any suggestions... Also, I have uploaded some pictures and maybe this might help... Thanks
