I just purchased a Hobie 18 and the bottom of the hulls could use a new gelcoat finished, and one of the dagger wells could use some fill where the gelcoat chipped off, and a soft spot on the back deck need to be filled. I met with two boat repair/paint pros, but both seem to be unfamilar with Hobie repair. Does anyone know of a good boat person/fiberglass fabricator that works on Hobies? Thanks for any help....
