Sorry for the delay, I was helping to show a guy how to wetsand, cut and buff a 1955 Chevy with my keyboard.
Hang tight, I'm going to post a couple of pictures for you.

The width of this walkway is probably only 12" so it's just real cumbersome to manage the rotary in that area.
I found the DA much easier to manage at awkward angles. It's also possible my technique with the rotary is wrong...who knows?! If I could get decent results in one pass with the polish/wax and the DA polisher, life would be good.

With what you wrote above, lets get you trying the thin PFW's
PFW = Purple Foamed Wool Pad
For a boat your size I would recommend getting at least 4 pads because you're going to flat out punish them and nothing lasts forever.
