New to this forum but not to tinkering on projects! I have a couple questions that I can't seem to get a zeroed in answer on. I've searched on here for pictures and 100 videos on youtube. So I signed up so I can learn from the great help on here.
I aquired a 70s Chrysler Bowrider with a 75hp Chrysler outboard, decent shape but the front hull has some damage I need to address.
My questions are I know how to layer the fiberglass but can I use large pieces of MAT and stack like the videos show, the damage is about 18"x 20". The damage isn't a hole....almost like the outer skin is peeled off (deeper than the gel coat)
Can I fix this with epoxy instead of fiberglass...I have read multiple points of view, but I know epoxy is strong as hell.
Opinions, pointers, help is appreciated! Trying to upload pics but won't let me.
