FX1 Wrecked and then fixed. Splashed a mold off of the other hull, cut out damage and built a flange to glue in new part. Re-cored, glued it together, faired it and done. This technique could be used for other types of damage.

John Wake use to say... with fiberglass, anything can be fixed, but it will be either time and $ or weight. Your choice.
