as a spraypainter by trade my piece of advice would be to leave it to a pro.2 pak paint takes a bit of knowhow to apply and there is only a fine line between getting it right or getting it wrong.!! you can keep costs down by doing most of the prep yourself

Have alook at  some other ali boats that have been painted the prep must be perfect ive got a new 6.0m stacer ive had for a year factory painted and starting to get bubbles under the paint already 12 months ago i also had a new razerline paint lifting on that as well,so i dont think it is a easy job to do.

I know theres a guy in Malaga who use to specilise in painting ali boats he trades as spoton panel and paint might be worth a try if not good luck with the job.
