You have hair line cracks in the hull? You mean, you have cracks in the gel coat. This should be fixed by somebody with a lot of experience spraying gel coat. Call Dustin at Menice, he'll get it handled for you or refer you to the guy that does it for him, Poncho.

Really guys here is a new guy coming to a boating site asking for help and this is what he gets. Tap24 it would be helpful if you posted a couple pictures of what you have going and where it,s going on. Depending on where the cracks are and if they are structual or cosmetic will determine what type of materials and if it is something you would want to take on yourself. I'll keep a eye open for your post I am on here most am,s about this time. Oh and Welcome to the site You might want to repost this in a different section

I would have it checked to make sure they are not stress cracks. That's much more serious than cosmetic gel cracks.

I had a Galaxie years ago that had cracks at the planning strakes on both sides. The boat started taking on water. It was a total loss. A blessing in disguise really. Ended up getting a beautiful and rock solid 21' Rogers Daycruiser after that. Wish I would have kept the Rogers.

Anytime you have ANY cracks below the water line, they need your attention.
Most stress cracks appear in the deck area.

Saw the cracks months before it started leaking. I thought they were stress cracks, technically I guess they were. But after that on a Holiday weekend in Parker it pretty much finished the boat off. Really started taking on water after that. Guess I was lucky nothing really bad happened.
