Yes tedious- I omitted citing that step; my bad.
I remember they used 150 grit on the gelcoat [not the fiberglass].
My hull bottom had a thin layer of spray paint on it- [thinking someone wanted to emulate bottom paint?] so I had the yard remove it before any other prep. It wasn't that hard a task since I had stripped the entire boat of everything including the motor and they just flipped it hull up to do the work.
