Hi everyone.

About a week ago out on the Hudson River I struck a 2x4 in the river floating just on the surface, it was about 3ft long.

The boat is a 2000 Cobalt 206

I got the boat back on the trailer and sure enough there was some damage on one of the edges of a Starboard chine.

The damage is about 1 1/2 -2 inches long, about 1/2inch wide, maybe 1/8-1/6 of an inch deep

The damage got through the gelcoat, and it looks like some of the resin behind it. It doesn't look like fiberglass (But I'm unsure). I poked around with a screw drivers and definitely no full penetration.

Ive done gelcoat repair before and Bondo work

Im just trying to collect some various opinions, I know its through pictures but any thoughts would be great
