Hi all,
I'm a delighted new owner of an european 16. After all summer dragging the hulls on the sand the bottoms show quite a wear, starting to flat the hull edges.
Should i be worried?, much?, when?.
What's the standard reshaping procedure? I take it that just gel-coating is not going sharp the edge or am i wrong?

Thanks.

you will need to get fiberglass matt to build up the shape. This isn't the easiest thing to get correct. I would recommend letting someone do it for you that works with glass everyday. There are several systems available with everything you need included pre cut glass. E-mail me for more information.


Thanks,
