There was a painted section on the bottom of the hull that appeared "flat" - meaning it didn't follow the contour of the surrounding fiberglass. It just looked like a shoddy repair to me and I couldn't live with that.

After I removed some wet rotted balsa core I discovered they had actually removed some of the damaged core and squirted in some of that expanding foam insulation to "repair" the damage! (Note that I had to remove some of the cabin bulwark to give access to the repair area.)
Sure enough I found wet rotted core directly above the patch on the hull. Whoever did the repair just fiberglassed over core damage and called it good!
I wasn't comfortable with what might be on the other side of that patch in the hull so that area will be opened up and removed. I also went over the floor with a moisture meter.
