Just some imagery of my first attempt at proper whaler hull repair, my rail broke through the glass at the back starboard side.

Damaged area and initial cut into glass

foam removed, edge feathered down

filled with "mash"

layers of cloth cut for the repair (ended up using 8 layers, total)

cloth layers clamped in place

After removing clamps, repair dried.

Still waiting on my gel coat from Spectrum color, will be sanding the repair down and re-geling it in the next few weeks

JJorgensen52,

This type of post is much better suited for a "Project Gallery Photo Album" or your personal page as you already have created.

Please let us know if you want to create a Project Album as this thread will most likely get lost in the big picture of this website never to be seen again.
