Greetings all:
The fathometer (a 20-year old Signet) died two weeks after I bought the boat; now the speed log is starting to check out, so I have decided to spring for a nice 3-instrument pod at the helm. Trouble is, I now have four holes in the Aft end of the cabin to fill. All holes are about 4 inches diameter, and I have access to both sides. I've read a lot of threads re: polyester vs.
epoxy, and
epoxy repair makes the most sense to me. The cabin is solid fiberglass (no balsa or foam core in 1965!!). I'm trying to avoid the tell-tale "old instrument" ring cracks in the back of the cabin after the repair is all fared up and painted pretty! Any advice from those with past experience would be most appreciated. Thanks!
