Repair of Damage to Gel Coat Layer on Hull Bottom
Posted: Sun May 27, 2018 4:57 pm
I wasn't paying attention and ran the boat onto on some submerged rocks--at slow speed, thankfully. Until I pulled the boat off the grinding was disheartening.
After siting at the dock in saltwater for a couple days, I pulled the boat. I saw some gouges on the bottom. One spot is the size of a pencil eraser. I can see some dark color--fiberglass, I guess.
Give suggestions on the repair procedure. Is a repair even necessary?
Thanks.
