I have two very small {bout the size of an eraser head} in my hull. Should I just get some resin/hardner and sand the area just around the hole and patch them? Or glass & resin the whole area? My main concern would be the presures on the hule, underway.

Deny,<br /><br />That would work, however it would be better if you could put some f-glass mat on the inside for the resin to soak into.

Re: 2 very small holes in fiberglass hole

thanks djohns19, It would be nice but this is a lower hull problem under the boat flooring and I would literally have to cut into the flooring to put glass on the inside of the hull and since the flooring is one of the only things with this boat I have not found to be lacking in, I think I will try crab bait's solution first. Appreciate your time <br /><br />Thanks crab bait I will look into the marine tex idea that would seem like the eaisest way to handle this one. Your the man, thanks again! Denny
