Reply to: How repair 3" hull gash in Nacra

[quote=tamumpower1]I'm no professional but my DIY skills usually hold up alright. Here's now I repaired a Prindle 18 bow sized hole in my H18 which also is foam core.

[img]http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d159/TAMUmpower/3_zpsrzvyc5b6.jpg[/img] Cut back the hull to where the foam core was undamaged and glassed in like 7 layers of 6oz cloth on the inside with about 4-5" of overlap to the rest of the hull.
