1976 +/- Boston Whaler Sport 13

I am prepping to repair hull damage that was poorly repaired with bondo and not the Whaler way.
I have read the Whaler instructions and the articles on the site here but am not sure how invasive I need to be.

I'm not sure how to upload pics on this site but put them here,
https://bostonwhalerproject.shutterfl...erfly.com/

I am thinking that I need to "open up" the damaged area and then follow the instructions that B W recommends, and so on. The articles are excellent and I am getting the West System guide as well.

What are your thoughts? Should I open up? Did you notice the other bondo repairs? I think I need to rip them out and hit it all with the west system.

Please help...

Thanks for the redirect... missed them in my search.

Anyone ever sand blasted anti fouling paint off the hull? Soda blasting looks a bit more delicate but pricey.
