Seakat do you leave boat on a mooring or slip? If so then the bottom paint should be removed by either a blasting media, sanded with orbital sander, or paint stripper. If you use trailer only no need for barrier coat waste of money. Also, yes you could just scuff up and recoat bottom but you may not be happy with the results. I just sanded 3-4 coats off my 20 SF was a PIA I now have a clean bottom and going to use epoxy trailer boat paint made by Blue Water Marine Paints. Hope this helps.

It is always going to depend what is on there now. That's what determines what you have to do. You can go to any of the bottom paint companies web sites and find out how or if you need to remove, prime, scuff or paint over with a compatible material. I thought the interlux site with their blog was very informative.

goodluck bill
