Soft Spot Fiberglass Boat Floor

Born again boating clothing.

Soft spot fiberglass boat floor. The soft spots tend to be small enough at first so you need to make sure that the overall surface you are working on allows you to apply the epoxy and fiberglass properly. In fact in certain spots you might sand all the way through the fiberglass. Repairing the soft spot in your boat floor if the problem is due to fiberglass weakening you ll want to sand the affected area until the soft spot is noticeably lower than the surrounding area. Use the resin based putty to fill in the depression or hole working the putty into the depths of the damaged area carefully with the small blade putty knife.

The problem though is that soft spots indicate an underlying problem that if ignored will spread. When you notice a small soft spot in the deck of your boat it s often easy to ignore it thinking the problem is one of limited scope. When noticing a soft spot on your boat you need to add more support to the structure to reinforce it as much as possible.
