I want to know how that happened before we tell you how to fix it.

I don't know either. The hull came extra with a boat I bought and sold for parts. I took pictures inside the hull (can't figure how to post) and there is no damage visible. The rest of the hull is in good shape except for that. It's an 84 hull.

You only need one [img]and,one[/img] on both ends.
Basically just grind off the loose stuff ,lay a new piece of glass on the deck and Gelcoat. You need unwaxed polyester resin and finish or waxed gelcoat.

That's the Reader's Digest Condensed version. It's going to look a lot worse before it gets better, and there's lots of elbow grease and power tools left out of that story.
