There is a piece about 2' by 1' section of paint that has come off the bottom around midsection and just to the left of the vee. I also noticed some other small areas where paint is starting to peel. I have a '90 starflight. Any suggestions?

Is there any bare fiberglass, or is the clearcoat peeling?
If there is a big "chip" in the paint/gel then you are going to have to use bondo.

Starflites are my #1 favorite checkmate...have any photos?

i would use bondo and then repaint the section the best you can. I know someone who had an mx13 and they thought the paint was peeling but it was the fiberglass and all the water pressure ripped off a few layers and the boat sank!
