My first concern would be What Happened. My guess is that because of the Stringer on the inside is missing the added pressure on the boat caused the problem. Next question would be is the hole over the Bunk of your trailer?? Which also talks about the pressure on that area that caused this hole. Then has additional flex because of the above caused additional damage to the fiberglass from your boat weight bouncing up and down in that area. I would think that you will need to take this boat off the trailer (if that is how it sits) and put it on blocks providing access from bottom and top to do repair work. As for the repair work on the hole if that is all you have to fix without digging and grinding until you find firm glass to start the repair process. Then I would look into those little booklets from West System to help you on how to repair holes working from the inside on this one. Then you will need to FIX YOUR STRINGER PROBLEM which probably was the reason why you got the hole in the first place. And then it you boat usually rests on a trailer you need to consider where the bunks are located on the boat to aid not destroy your boat at rest. I would only use epoxy resin on this one and I would form and build stringers or buy some store bought custom stringers for this one. You can find, under the heading of pictures how to post picutres or maybe someone on the board will do it for you if you e-mail them to a volunteer. This one sounds like a job that can be fixed, IF DONE RIGHT which seams that was not the case at first. Good luck.
