Just bought an outrigger-connection (FUZE) OC-1 used. First time some of the paint near the stern (upper deck) chipped off. Section is about 5"x3". I have questions as to how to "patch" the section without having to repaint the whole boat.
On a fiberglass boat I know what to do (sand, patch/fill if necessary, prime and paint with marine paint), however the Fuze is a kevlar-graphite composite and paint is a gelcoat paint.
I am guessing the proper procedure would be:
1. Remove any loose paint with a knife
2. Sand edges of the pain and about 1" beyond the damage
