Hull Painting

Our restoration of the "No Problem" is moving along. The new Yanmar engines are set up in the boat and the new running gear is being fabricated and installed. Deck and motor box system from Whittaker is on the way. Things are moving along nicely but we still have the problem of the green hull -- yuck!!. The existing paint job is poor quality (already peeling and chipping) and the color is deadful.

We are definitely going to change this (and possibly paint the top sides in the process) and would love to complete this job this winter/spring while the boat is being restored. It will be quite a job as the hull really needs to be brought down to the glass.

Could anyone recommend a good person to do this work in Long Island? The boat is in Hampton Bays. Any other advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
