I created a boat in 3ds max then I sent it to Mudbox so I can paint the texture on it.

in 3DS Max I UV Unwrapped it with Flatten. I made sure there was no spacing in between

When I sent it to Mudbox to paint and started painting, there seem to be some parts of the boat not being able to paint over. I was wondering what you guys and gals think the problem might be?

I added the photo as a attachment so you can see what I mean.

Any kind of help is much appreciated. Thank you for your time :)
