Picked up a 5'6" Chemistry Fiberflex fish and it appears to have some damage on the underside with a significant amount of the epoxy layer gone. I know it needs to be sealed but was wondering how much it might cost, what needs to be done, and if I could just do it myself. Thanks for reading and any advice would be appreciated.

That said she might always be a hog. Where did you buy it and why didn't you examine it??? Ask yourself.
Haha I know I know...I picked it up for cheap just to hopefully screw around with and was kinda hopeful I could just patch it up quick...slowly losing hope
It's a large area to repair, but the repair is fairly easy, as it's a flat surface... Some prep work, a simple single layer lamination, some fairing, hotcoat, sand. You could do it yourself if you mix your small batches of epoxy by weight if you have a digital scale (small batches are hard to proportion accurately by volume).
