I had this happen with and composite boat. Was able to use heat gun to outside of hull while someone applied pressure to inside. Use oven mitt or something else to protect hand from heat. Once nice and hot (Careful not to burn gelcoat). With person applying pressure to hot hull, I would spray cool water on hull of boat to stiffen it back up. I fixed had 2 very noticeable foam block indents. By the time I as done. unable to detect. Good Luck

Since we don't have any particular destination in mind we could try to work with wind and pick area that would give us best chance for learning without having head wind the entire way back. I would agree not a day for offshore. I think if we find areas inside that we would find on normal day offshore, and play and practice with them. We can practice many things. current, rescues, communication, Knowing your limits. I think if we don't lock ourselves into having a long paddle back. Should be fun/safe day. Mark

I'm in will send float plan via pm.

I'm going.
