Sandblasting will really screw up the fiberglass and make the hull really
prone to blistering later.

You can sand blast (Cheaper than you think if you get one of those big
trucks), Soda Blast (expenisive), electric grinder/sander ( buy a
really good one), stripper (horrible), propane torch (dangerous).

I tried all - Settled on 3 step process, shovel first (it needed it),
5000 psi pressure washer second. And third hand grinder (tried 4 or 5
different attachments) Having to do this to a 70' boat, I hired an
illegal worker at 6 an hour to do last step. Also buy lots of plastic
bags, tarps and good shop vac.

If I had to it again, I would hire a sandblasting company... I think I
would have saved money.
