Default Help identify the bottom paint

I'm looking to paint the bottom of my 3200 this spring, but want to identify the current paint before moving forward. The previous owner doesn't know, and it looks like it's been a while since it was painted. Boat has spent its life in a freshwater lake from May-Oct and on a trailer off-season. Please see the picture and let me know if you can identify the type. Thanks for your help!

There are basically two types of anti-fouling paint, a paint that dries hard and a paint that dries so that it slowly peels away. It's called ablative paint.

My guess is it looks like a hard paint that is on there know.
