| Post subject: | Hobie 16 hull restoration |
I recently bought a used hobie 16. The hulls are mostly solid and I have already sailed the boat a few times. I noticed that some spots on the top of the hulls can be pressed in slightly, I was thinking about restoring the hulls. What would be a good way to do that? |

Search for epoxy injection and you’ll get your answer. I haven’t done it but conceptually you’re drilling shallow holes in the deck and injecting epoxy to re-laminate was the fiberglass which in your hulls has delaminated. It’s been thoroughly discussed here because it’s sometimes happens on older boats. |
