Yea that shrunken old gelcoat is what the problem really is. The stuff on this hull looked like a dried up lake bed or something hahah. Hopefully gonna let some high build fly this weekend...on the hullsides anyway, bottom needs some more work sharpening the steps back up and whatnot.

Ya know Dirt, two things always happen when you are doing a boat project, especially a SeaCraft, the target date is always passed and the budget is always passed!
