: I could do that, but I really want to bite into it with my dremel
: tool. The boat has already drawn blood, and I want my revenge.
: There is a lot of void where the slider groove meets the deck, and
: I don't want to have to do another fix the next time I break
: through the gel coat.
: I also don't want to change the shape of the groove by sanding away
: the gel coat and leaving it - the void is about 1/4" deep -
: the slider would not act smoothly with that much removed from
: the corner.

Too bad you couldn't use some kind of a syringe to inject epoxy into the void to fill it instead. Just a thought, but what do I know?? LOL
