  1. in fibergalss cracks will usually come back unless you sand enough of the crack to increase the strength again if the cracks are big take a dremel tool with a small bit to the end of the cracks this will stop the crack from spreading farther. Also they make a thicking agent like cabosil its a fine powder that we use in the marine industry to thicken gelcoat or resin. after you prep the crack you should add fiberglass to the area to add strength. put the fiberglass on cardboard pour the resin on use a brush to get the fiberglass wet then put it on the bad area and smooth it out with the brush. make it as smooth as possible sand when dry recoat with just resin to make it smoother. good luck

  2. Thanks for all your help can't possibly answer all the questions but thats ok seems like christmas in march good thing we didn't know about this site over the winter time would've gone real slow but would've had larger christmas list thanks me and my son

  3. Hi Kevin,

    We also just joined and we too are hoping to get into salmon/trout fishing. Since we just acquired an old Sea Nymph it was interesting to see that you have an 18 footer. Ours is an aluminum 19 ft, full windshield with a walk through into an open bow. Similar to yours? How do you like it? I know that we have high hopes for ours, so it would be interesting to hear your comments – or from anyone else that has a similar boat.

    Hope your summer produces lots of fish (translation: "lots of great memories for you and your boy.")

    we enjoy our boat alot.It gets us were we have to go and it handles the waves quite nicely. Hope you enjoy you boat.
