I want to rename my boat, the old name appears to be painted on the hull. What is a safe product to use on fiberglass to remove the old painted on name?

Easy-off works fine. I have done it a couple of times on different boats. It may take a couple of applications. Best to do it on a warm/hot day. Be sure to get the stuff that does not need the "oven" to be heated to 350 deg.

You will probably see a shadow from the sun oxidation (where the paint wasn't). If this bothers you then you can compound it or sand it with wet/dry paper. You may want to consider vinyl lettering to replace the paint.
