Seems granddaughter Sarah put a bit too much muscle into rowing the dinghy on it's initial float test. Noticed a foot long crack in the paint just below the gunwale. Turned out the flex in the hull wasn't just a matter of a thin hull. It is glass on outside, veneer inside and paint over that. The veneer is rotten for about 5-6 feet and several inches deep. Guess I'm going to need a gallon of resin and a fair amount of cloth to make this right.
