All fixed, was on the water twice this week!

I rounded off the corners of a 2' long piece of 1 x 1 pine, cut each end 45 degrees to match the 45 degree angle of the sec of keel I cut out.

i layered about eight pieces of Fiberglas cloth over the wood/12:1 hole I cut, small pieces first and large piece last.

Then I used some of the high density filler (407 I think ) to fill in the rough spots and sanded with 150 grit DA to smooth it all out.

Painted it with 4 coats of Kilz.

It also appears to me that the middle roller might be adjusted a tad high. My trailer had a broken spring for many years. I think the combination of the two were responsible for the damage.

Spring has been fixed, and I tackle roller next.

Thanks to all who helped guide me through this!
