crack in surface of fibreglass

[trueblue]

I had a couple of cracks appear in the surface of fibreglass in an area that is impossible to bump

looks like a shrinkage crack

very weird. the glass is faded and a bit chalky

is the glass about to turn to sh!t?

Are you sure it's not just the gelcoat?

[trueblue]

it is the gelcoat surface, not happy

[darylive]

how old is the boat?

[trueblue]

15 yr old

not old enough to be acceptant of deterioration like that

[Chamelion]

Throw up some photos, will help with diagnosis and advice. :)

15 years old? I reckon that is well and truly time to accept that "things" may not be new anymore, but then, maybe that's just me.

Where are the cracks mate? Just "normal" gel coat hairline cracks, or has the gel coat separated from the glass underneath?

[trueblue]

yeah, separated from underneath

just one spot

it looks like a dig out and repair job (and try to colour match)
