Your best bet is to go to the Hobie forum on thier website www dot hobiecat dot com and do a search there. There is actually a FAQ about how to do it with diagrams and everything. I hve repaired small delamination areas on my decks and that has lasted for years. If done properly you will be fine. If the areas encompass the entire deck, then you really should look at replacing the hulls. Do not do any exterior or interior glassing as this will not solve the problem.

As for your repair, if you follow the directions and advice all you need to do is cover teh epoxy filled holes with some Marince Tex that matches your hull color. Depending on how much time you put into it will determine how pretty the repair is.

Do not sail with delaminated decks as the hull structure is seriously compromised. Do the repair before you sail and, as long as you completed it properly, you will be fine. If you have any more indepth questions, feel free to pm or email me.
