repair hull/rudder cracks
selvyselvy@aol.com:
Hello again,
I'm sure appreciating your expertise on this site. Thanks again!
Very soon I'll be starting repair of minor hull cracks. What material shall I use to fill?
Then, one area of the rudder is starting to pull away. What matierial shall I fill this with? photo attached.
Happy New Year to you!!

selvyselvy@aol.com:
correction....the area starting to separate is on the skeg. Not rudder.
I'm trying to attach a photo but it's too large and I'm not savvy enough to change it....yet.
Rusty Pelican:
The patch you are referring to is a sacrificial faring. No worries
selvyselvy@aol.com:
Understood. Maybe. Please define sacrificial fairing? It is pulling away. material appears to be about 1/4" thick. I'd like it pretty before bottom painting.
And what's your choice for filling cracks?
Thanks again, soooo much.
Jim S.
Rusty Pelican:
It's just a fairing that covers the gudgeon. Not structural
