Painting a boat is not usually recommended, but to regel that blue to red will cost a ton.

You could always wrap the blue part or if you truly want to go with paint, then the only ones that I've ever heard good things about was called awlgrip and imron. Both are pretty durable and have been used in marine applications. I believe they are fairly expensive as well.

So have you looked at the blue? Is that a vinyl wrap or clear logo onto of a blue gel coat. If it's gel coat, learn to love that blue. I do

Gel coats are a combination of pigment of epoxy that works as protection for the fiberglass.

Boating magazine recently had an article about a new epoxy paint for gelcoated boats. It's pretty expensive, but apparently works great. I have no first hand experience, but you might find the article helpful:
