: Robert,
: Is this the boat you've been resurrecting or another one? If it's gelcoat
: that's damaged and the fiberglass is still there, perhaps a gel coat
: repair is the way to approach this.

Hi, Jim

It's the other one. I haven't been working on the rebuild due to OT at work. I've also been busy preparing for my big river trip so I haven't had time to work on the rebuild. The glass is still there but appears to have some minor damage. The damage appears to be more of a scrape and crush than a complete puncture right through..
