Fiberglass repair and advice
 
So we just slammed into the docks and cracked the fiberglass. It's right above the plastic seam that goes all the way around the boat.

Wondering about how much it will be to get it fixed, and also, am I ok to use it a couple more weeks since my season is almost over. does that drain to the hull of the boat, or is that a pocket that is not supposed to get any water?

Here is a pic. It dented it and cracked it open.

A: that sucks

B: can't tell where along the rub rail your damage is. Post a wider picture.

C: that sucks

D: your probably okay to finish out the season prior to repair.

E: That really sucks.

One more thing, don't smear any sealer into the crack, especially silicone based products. They'll make the repair more difficult because things don't stick to silicone

Starboard back corner about 1 - 2 feet from the back of the boat. You can't see in that picture, but it actually smashed it in pretty good to where I can stick my fingers behind the rub rail, and I can see the inside of the lower portion of the boat.

I can take another picture when I'm back home tonight.

And ya, it really sucks.
