Hull refinish

I have a 2013 Keywest WA21 with blue hull. Lots of use and dock rub have left the hull scuffed and dull. Is there a way to revitalize or is a complete hull surface refinish necessary. The gel coat does have some scratches. I live in parry sound ontario and a recommended boat works to do a refinish would be appreciated.

Re: Hull refinish

Chalky or dinged? If it's chalky from age, you can buff off the outer layer with rubbing compound and then wax it. Try this site for guidance:
