Got a big crack in my Eclipse. My Hobie dealer was useless. Any ideas on best way to fix this. Looks like an impact crack

It is fiberglass... You can repair as you would with a surfboard or SUP. Grind down to the glass and place a layer / patch of glass and resin and then cover with something or buff and paint.

Mark Johnson at the factory could describe the process exactly and which materials to use.

I'll email you his address. Photos for him would help.
