New paint covering, really is only for aesthetic appearance.
That being said, can I just sand and spray on some regular "primer" ?

Interlux makes particular products for priming and bottom coating lake boats (non-ablative, ultra low friction) I would suggest using them. I had White Mountain Fiberglass do my Grady and they did a great job (603-254-4478).
