All Cracks on deck!

OK Mates ,

Check out these picture of some gel coat cracks around the boom traveler on my 1981 c&c 34. What's the best way to repair something like this? Is this a sign!?

Thanks all,

Could be simple gel coat stress cracks from "working" or heat/cold cycles, or could be structural. Can't tell from pictures.

I'd start with Captain Tolley's to seal the cracks and keep an eye on them.

your boat is now worth nothing, I will take it off your hands for you....:O)


or, second on the tolleys. Note it will not match the gelcoat so use sparingly until it no longer seeps in, then wipe. Gelcoat usually cracks at corners, so may just be the sharp corner that is causation.
