It looks likes someone did a crappy job with faring epoxy and it has separated from the hull. I guess the big question here is, how bad is this? Like a fix it right now problem or a fix it in a few months problem? (money and time are the limiting factors at the moment). Attached Files IMG_9284.JPG [138.83 KBytes] - (179 downloads) Mouse #359

It was done at a propeller shop of unknown origin...Good luck with this caper. sailnordicstar.blogspot.com http://careandfeedingofnordicstarpartii.blogspot.com/
