Thanks for the Information on the expoxy vs the polyester, I didnt
realize that the polyester would damage the core foam material?
Guess that would be some good information to have. As far as the
Capri 25 goes, the damage is on the starboard side of the boat. a
hunter 26 hit the boat last summer coming down on the t-track and
pushing the glass over 1/2". I have taken the trim peice off of the
inside to reveal that the crack had not gone all the way threw the
deck. I have found some rubber casting material that will replace
the non skid section. you router the damage out 1/8" deep fill with
resign and let it cook. having a square section to work with you
poor the gelcoat in the section and fold the rubber mould ontop of
it. the repair should look very good with only some minor repairing
to do on the edges. The trick is to get the color right on the
gelcoat. I will update as i go along and post so you all can see the
repair. Chris Mckillip
