lv-ab: bottom paint removal

    I have just started attacking the 2 layers of bottom paint and layer of bad
    gelcoat on my boat. The bottom paint has a rubbery consistency and doesn't
    sand well.
    I tried to sand it off with 36 grit and the paper just fouls.
    Is there a good chemical stripper for bottom paint? or a solvent?
    Is there any better method of removing gel coat?
    I am thinking that a big disk sander with 24 grit may be the ticket for fast
    removal.
    Any suggestions?
