At the below URL are pics of my f28 during and after soda blasting. There are some cracks on either side of keel, see pics. Suggestions on repairing them with fiber glass as I cannot get to back side would be appreciated.

FYI Soda Blasting took about four hours at $200 per hour with personnel driving out of Dallas to here about 60 miles.

I would start by sanding it down to see what the extent of the cracks are. That would determine how much material I would need. I would build it up with woven roven til it was built up flush.

Kinda figured to hog it out and fill with the roving, should wind up with a patch which will or might cause a little, however I do not think much.

Any othe IMOs
