I had an illegal head on my Cal 20. For that boat, I cut out the fitting,
then somewhat closely matched a piece of wood to the hole. Then,
filled in the gaps with 5200, then glassed over the whole thing from
both sides. I don't know if that was the best way to do it, but it
doesn't leak and I suspect it's stronger than the rest of the hull.

Is there another method that's as or more effective?

Thanks for the link. I used the West System on the Cal 20,
and it worked great!

You actually bought that 40 year old piece of ****? I hope you didn't
pay six grand for it. I got a 25 foot Hunter that I'll sell for four
grand.

I'm sure you do have a 25 foot Hunter. Talk about a piece of
crap! Like I said, you know nothing about sailboats.

My Cal 20 is completely and totally superior to your Hunter 25
crap. If we raced, assuming you didn't fall of the boat at the
dock, which is a distinct possibility, the only flag you would win
would be the one that your crew would shove up your ass when
you embarrassed them at the end. We all know you would be
DNF, but your crew, probably comprised of your drag-queen
boyfriend and the last no-feathers boy you picked up in front
of the gay strip joint you're so fond of mentioning, would collectively
shove it up your ass.

I used to call you Hero, as short of Horvath, whatever the f*ck
that is... your name? hahahahh. From now on, I think I'll refer
to you as Horass, which is much closer to the truth. Of course,
there are two ways of looking at that name. One is the boy meets
boy, boy gets reemed by boy. The other is that you're just a
horse's ass. Either fits quite nicely... no pun intended.

Hey Hero,

Do you really own a Hunter 25? Why would you
want to own such a poorly made, entry level boat
when there are lots of good used boats to be had
for reasonable prices?

That WAS my starter boat, dumbass. I don't sail it anymore. I have
one much better.
