V ing out the crack if it is a superficial craze is proper before filling with gel coat--fibers if a large crack--glass over if there is actually stress in this area. I agree, that fiberglass is not like plexiglass or metal needing a "stopper hole" drilled. The small craze cracks are usually due to lack of proper installation of the screw, and as long as no core is compromised, not really an issue. _________________ Bob Austin Thataway Thataway (Ex Seaweed) 2007 25 C Dory May 2018 to Oct. 2021 Thisaway 2006 22' CDory November 2011 to May 2018 Caracal 18 140 Suzuki 2007 to present Thataway TomCat 255 150 Suzukis June 2006 thru August 2011 C Pelican; 1992, 22 Cruiser, 2002 thru 2006 Frequent Sea; 2003 C D 25, 2007 thru 2009 KA6PKB Home port: Pensacola FL
