[QUOTE="smoody, post: 98434, member: 804"] you didn't mention how wide your boat is, but you should be fine with the 7" base. I would think 1 gallon would about take care of it, depends on how many coats needed. The paint can will have the sq footage coverage in the description. Take your boat WxLxH to roughly figure sq footage. This can only be answered by you, how many people/gear/weight will be in the boat on average? Better to have more power then not enough. I have a 17' boat with a 40HP outboard, average 2 people on board with 2 batteries, cooler, 20 gallon bait tank and 2 - 25lb anchors. I have a 46lb thrust Minn Kota trolling motor and if it was any smaller it would crawl. [/QUOTE]
