Hello all!

i just picked my 2021 195S and it has a a very small nic onboard above the storage bin. I don’t believe my wife or I did this but I also didn’t notice it before we picked it up either. Maybe on the tow home a rock hit it? Anyone know of something I can use to fill it so it doesn’t stand out as much. I heard some people say spectrum gel coat would be good? I don’t want to sand or anything like that. Just something to fill it in with. Any ideas? Thanks!

That said, the 'right' way to do this would, yes, be with Spectrum gelcoat paste. That would involve sanding. But on such a small spot, either a) don't worry about it or b) learn there how to fix gelcoat, complete with sanding, buffing, etc. and never again fret as much over a little ding in your boat... For me it was option a for awhile and then b.
