If you have never painted a hull befroe you may want to consider having it done professionally. Mine cost $4500 done professionally with Awlgrip. You may save some money doing it your self but if you mess it up it will be out in the open for all to see.

Having said that, are you planing to spray or roll and tip? Cannot make recommendations without knowing.
