    I did this three years ago, and haven't seen even a tiny blister afterwards.
    The answer to your question is both... vinylester for the mat lay-up and
    epoxy barrier coats. After peeling and drying the hull, here is what we
    applied:

    3 sessions of 1.5 oz. fiberglass mat with vinylester resin
    2 coats Interprotect 1000 - High build epoxy primer
    2 coats Interprotect 2000 - 2 part epoxy barrier coat
    1 heavy sweep Interprotect VC tar2 - Watertight 2 part epoxy putty
    3 coats Interprotect 2000 - 2 part epoxy barrier coat
    2 coats antifouling - Petit Trinidad SR (4 gallons).
