I recently dropped my fiberglass kayak while carrying it to the car. The impact caused a long chip in the stern. The aft storage compartment is still watertight thankfully.
How would I repair this?

Thanks.

Hi Alan,

We asked our friend Jim who has repaired many kayak gel coat chips in his time.

We videoed our findings for you! Check it out:
