Baller Bdecker Posted April 25, 2020 Baller Share Posted April 25, 2020 I’m headed to look at a used boat today. The seller has advised that it has 4-5 dime size “nicks” in the gelcoat under the waterline. They are factored into the price of the boat and with a white hull, I’m happy to do a DIY repair as long as they are purely superficial. Is there any signs I should be looking for to visually indicated that they are more than superficial? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BraceMaker Posted April 25, 2020 Baller Share Posted April 25, 2020 I usually look for any signs of stress cracking around the chips, push on the gel around the holes firmly. Look for the laminate being disturbed/fibers sticking up. Its best if the boat has been out of the water awhile to fix those before getting the boat wet again.
