i have a 38xz and its a whole lotta fiberglass .

Are you going just the blue and no graphics? Just off the top of my head in my shop it would be in the 15-18K range. Thats a tough color to do extra large areas in, you really have to watch how the metallics/pearls lay. Done wrong and they look like crap. Do you have a shop in mind already?

What year and power? I have a 2000 w/525SC's

Price is really going to depend on the products being used, the underlying body work, how advanced your paint scheme is etc.. Materials wont be cheap for the goods stuff, but the amount of labor time will be where more of the money goes.

We have done many boats and many Donzi's. No two have been exactly the same cost wise. I would however say that at least 15-20k would a good starting point depending on how much the shop has to do and what materials they are using. The sky could almost be the limit on repainting a whole boat depending on the required body work & what paint and graphics you choose. Jamie
