need some advise on some bottom hull repair. Previous owner or before him found a way to get some long gouges in the bottom of the hull thankfully nothing that punctured the hull. However what would be my best bet on patching or filling these gouges in until I do a total restore of this fine 16 ft ss? Havenot had her wet yet and would like to splash her in and find out what else needs done. I can post some picks of the gouges if that helps. To many restores on here to make me want to quit now!

If you plan more in depth work soon, and none punctured the hull, I'd be inclined to leave them alone.....

Can I use 5200 to skim over these gouges and the repainted the bottom until the boss lets me do the restore. Wouldn't want inflowing water to mess up her hair ..... Just kidding Im getting to that age ... 60 when I just want her and I to enjoy some time on and not in the water
