HI! everyone, can you help please.  I have a Huntsman 3, bought from ebay as a repairable.  It is 46" inches long and has a three inch split in the bow section, below the waterline  It is about a quarter inch wide going to zero.  The hull i believe is grp with inner structure of ply. Tryed to upload photo, but it timed out.  Many thanks

Most car body fillers are porous so cover the filler with thin epoxy, rub down then paint.
