Hey i have a 1973, 17-ft cohasset and the bottom paint is very worn off, i was wondering if anyone had any idea what kind of paint to get to repaint it. I was thinking about either going white again or just a plain black. If anyone could help me out please do, it would be greatly appreciated

Color is a matter of personal choice. I assume you are referring to anti-fowling paint that has been worn down

do you leave the boat in the water or is it trailered? If it's on a trailer, why bother. if you leave the boat in the water, ask your marina or neighbors what type works for them.

If the boat is "moored", you'll need "Anti-Fouling" bottom paint. I use "Interlux" Ablative bottom paint (wears off during the season) #0669 blue, I try and stay with a "Red, White, and Blue" theme on my boat. I've been using "Interlux" bottom paint product's for 20 years, they've NEVER let me down.
