yes, it cored
In Response To: Agreed

() it is a balsa cored hull. The flat spot is about a foot square (size of stanchion plate) and is about six feet from the bow just below the water line. What is the appropriate way to fix it if it does not come back out?

- flat spot in hull
- How much of a deflection? Is it near a stringer or bulkhead? How near the waterline?
- Is it cored?
- If it is cored and crushed, it is a different issue and needs to be fixed.

- yes, it cored
- Grind, replace core, re-glass, barrier coat, bottom paint
- Or cut out surface
- I'd give it a bit of time, maybe some heat to warm the area a bit.........
- Bondo?
- I would have a yard look at it.
