I have the usual gelcoat scrapes along the keel, fairly bad and right through to the weave in many places. Early on in the boats makeover I turned it upside down in the garden and spent lots of time grinding and filling with a gelcoat repair kit. However after only about 8 hours or so use it seems much of it has come back off and I'm now feeling I need to do something more substantial.
The boat takes on very little water, if any. couple of gallons for a full day's wakeboarding so I don't think it is leaking.
I have plenty of chopstrand and Biax cloth offcuts as well as a couple of litres of Poly Resin that I picked up from a boat builder.
The question is, can I glass upside down with the materials that I have, and if so, have you got any tips....
I cant really turn the boat over now it's finished and I am really reluctant to cut holes in the deck to get from the inside.
