I would take a side grinder and completley get rid of the bubble . That will probably leave a large hole . I would fill with formula 27 (white marine filler) then grind it down until I had about a 1/8" to go and then get some epoxy resin and I would use carbon fiber cloth or fiberglass cloth and...
I constantly search the market place for Sunfish and I found a local 1994 sunfish in great shape with a trailer for $800 ... when I saw it I got over there fast because there were 6 people ready to buy it...She let my have it because I was the first to ask about it...The trailer is almost...
Hi I bought a harken rubber stand up boot for my 57mm mainsheet block...Do I use the stand up spring and the boot or just use the rubber boot to hold the block up? Thanks
When sailing my new sail It had a great shape and with the race controls I adjusted it with the luff loose and outhaul loose with scallops along the luff and boom to experiment... then tightened the controls...It seems faster with the loose sail...one of the things that I liked was that the...

Thanks for the compliments. It was a fun project this time because I did it over the winter on my glass porch . And took my time . I have done rushed projects out in the summer sun that seemed not so fun at times . Well I bought the boat for $250 and 50 for the title. It looked as though it...
Oh yea I probably used a lot of it...what happened is it had an uncured "bubble "inside the foam and when water got to it it ballooned out...now I use only polyurethane foam made for boats no worries because it fully cures in minutes...and if under the cockpit just expands out around the...
