1965 16ft Century Resorter,
I recently inherited a 1965 16ft Century Resorter, it was put in storage in 1975 due to the bottom leaking, and I want to get started on the restore.

The main question I have is what is the best way to remove the paint from the bottom of the boat without causing any hi and low spots from sanding?
I am pretty sure a belt sander is not a good idea.

I was thinking of using a large 7/9 inch pad/disc sander.
Any advice you can offer on the proper method of getting the old paint off to get to bare wood is appreciated.
Regards
Tim,
