I noticed yesterday a small circular crack on the top of the non-stick surface of the bow. What is best way to repair? Is presure washing this surface advisable?

Thanks
 
It sounds like you may have a void in the gelcoat. A pressure washer shouldn't be used on a boat other than below the waterline. If you used a pressure washer on the upper deck, the pressure washer most likely found the void.
 
Thank you.

Is there a gel coat repair kit that I can use to seal up the crack before it gets too bad? Should I have a specialist take a look at it first?
 
There are ways to seal it and/or have a gel coat person repair it. If you do that you not not be able to see it.
