I recently bought this boat, need a little repair, but I have no idea how to do these repairs.
I washed the bottom with acid, it removed all the crud that was on the hull from sitting in the water, on a couple of the pictures, looks like they tried to repair with something, that trapped the crud underneath, looks like the only way to remove this is to sand it down, unless someone has another idea.
There is a quite a few places with the pitting of the gel coat, how could I repair these, without having to mix fiberglass for these small repairs, and doing them upside down.
I couldn't figure out how to add images on this apple device.

Depends on what you want to do with the boat and how picky you are with the results. Lot's of options with varying results. What boat? What Yr? How's she used? How Picky are you with how she looks? Are you gunna Paint the repairs or Gelcoat em? Need a bit more info.;)
