Can anyone advise on the construction details in the area of the prop strut? I have what appear to be some small stress cracks around what looks like a 4" X 7" mounting plate/base of the prop strut, and another 3" crack on the centerline about 4" behind the strut.
Is there in fact a rectangular plate attached to the strut embedded in the glass? Is there any coring in this area, or is it solid glass? Has anyone else see these small cracks? Assume they are only in the gelcoat, but I am wondering if I should grind into them to see if they go into the laminate.
Any advise is appreciated.
