Hello all. My sister and I were recently offered a free 83 Bruce Roberts 34. We have some experience sailing but never owned a sailboat before. Of course it has needs and I really need help with one of them.
What is going on with the rudder here? I know the crack is more than just paint but I'm pretty sure else can just sand it down and fiberglass over it.
Is the cracking the barrier coat, gel coat? How should we best to the repair before painting?
It also needs some spot work above the waterline. Any advice there would be great too.
