I don't know how much you are paying for this boat but I doubt it's your
'first born'. Looks like a good starter boat and if this is the only major
damage then you will have a good learning experience with a minimum
investment. If your survive the glass dust itch from this job then your
ready for any other lesser jobs you find.

One vital point to remember. After grinding fiberglass DO NOT take a
hot shower. That just lets the glass creep deeper into your skin. A
COLD shower seems to squeeze it out. :-)
