I took the boat to a paint shop that does boats to have some minor chips, etc. fixed. Well under the paint booth lites we found more flaws, and some botched repairs.
Bottom line: all defects will be fixed. The fade from white to yellow at the front will look more like a fade instead of looking like the previous painter ran out of paint.
Then both sides will get wet sanded, a bunch of coat of clear, more sanding and then buffing. Should look like new then!
Here are a few pics of the boat in the booth.

Place is called AutoCraft Express. Painter is Brian Teachman. He has painted SO many famous cars and some well known boats. Too bad the shop isn't well known. Brians work is incredible.
