I have a crack on the outboard well rear vertical edge as shown in the pic. It seems that this "vee" has been deliberately put there. As this often gets stood on while stepping onto the boat, I would like to glass it back up without the "vee". Do other RL 24's have this, and what is it for?
Looks like it's been punched by the leg of an outboard although it could also be a notch cut for some kind of mast holder to hold it centre. If you don't want it, glass it.
