Default Re: Rear Hatches

I took the rear hatches off and took them to a local glass shop, one that specializes in boat repairs. *He looked at them and said it does not look like fibergass. *He then tooka knife to the broken area and scraped it. *If it was glass blown or mat there would be fibers sticking out of the scrape. * His thoughts was that they were sprayed gel coat, no glass in them. He could not fix them. *Plan B - went to Laird plastics and bought two pieces of 3/4" starboard cut to size $25 each. *I'll 1/4" round the outside edges and rout a recess on the under side remount hinges *and install. *I'll post photos of my first V20 project. ;D
