I paid 150 for a guy to help me sand the bottom of my boat... I had a box of 40 grit, 80 gritand 120 grit. the bottom paint was 2-3 layers and believe it or not.. It was the finer grit that removed the paint quicker..it took us 15 hours to sand the entire bottom.. If I had the funds I would have paid to soda blast but. I didn't think 150 was to bad..He did a great job.. btw the guy is a professional cabinet sander. been doing it for 12 years

I helped my father strip the bottom of his 23 Sceptre 15 years ago. We used Strip-Eze. Like some of the others have mentioned using a gel-type remover, lay it on, let it sit, then scrape off. It's messy as all hell but you don't need brute force to get it done.
A note of caution - if doing this outdoors, don't let sunlight hit the paint stripper while on the boat. It'll melt the gelcoat. We learned that the hard way...luckily it was a very small area and it was addressed right away.
