Hello,
Just purchased my first boat. Did a lot of research on the internet and with the little knowledge i had, thought the boat looked great. It does only have 18 hours on it. The only problem I saw was a few scratches on the keel (sp?). Looks like the previous owner may have beached it a few times. I ran my hand over the scratches and did not feel any dents. Looks like a scratch from rubbing against something as opposed to impacting, but it has worn through the gel coat. Should I worry about it? Should I repair it? If so, how? Thanks!
