Gene,
I assume you mean seal the bottom with an epoxy paint. This is a great way
to minimize blisters. If the boat stays in the water, I would do this even
if I knew what the original bottom paint was.

Find out what the previous owner used. Not all bottom paints are

And.... if you find that you must remove all of the previous coats,
you should seal the bottom in accordance with the manufacturer of the
new paint's instructions.
