: any tips on repairing a gouge from an ros. it's about 2.5 inches long on a
: strip that has a bend to it. deep enough to be noticed since it's at the
: center of the hull at the bow.

: thanks , charlie

Hi Charlie,

The only way I can think that would fix it, other than some filler that you'll see, would be cutting the gouge out with a razor knife then fitting a filler piece cut to fit and gluing that into the cut. Won't be fun on a curve clamping it, but you could use a heat gun to pre-bend the piece so it won't take a lot of pressure to hold it in place then staples should hold it till the glue sets.
