Removing bottom paint...
 
When I purchased my Ranger 200C, I had the bottom painted
because I thought at the time that I would slip the boat over
in the Bay, but I changed my mind and trailered it.

Now the paint is coming off and looks really ugly.

And just for yucks, a picture of the boat:

Other than wet sanding with a light grit sandpaper and buffing
the bottom, is there any other way of removing the paint from
the bottom without ruining the gel coat?

Advice, as always, appreciated.

Later,

Tom
