I've looked high and low and all most went the epoxy route but since you sent me the link, I'm going to order the vinyl ester. Been raining and the kids and grandkids are here so no work till Monday or Tuesday But I'll be sure to post pics of the repairs. Thanks again for all the help. Good news is, wifey gave the go ahead on the next project V Needs lots of work actually rebuilding from the hull up but, good for the pilot house idea I saw in another thread. Figure I have plenty of time to do it once this one is back in the water.
