Alright well the other day after getting off the water from a long ride, I did my post ride inspection and then started washing my ski (06 gti). As I look under the bottom it seems that I have a chip in it. Now I never did feel myself or see anything that I could have hit, but I guess I did. So anyways it is not on the keel, its about 7 inches away from center and behind a rib line and its about as big as a dime. The outer white part is gone. What is my best course to fix this? I just don't wont it to weaken any of the other stuff around it.

Since I am doing this I am gone to take the time to do another full detail on my ski. What would be the best wax to use on this? I have no oxidation, it has been garage kept and washed after every ride so its real clean, but I would just like to get some good protection on the gelcoat.

Last question. As I was doing my inspection I noticed on the very back at the ride plate there are a couple screws that hold it together so to speak right under the jet/nozzle. Well on the two end screws/bolts there is this like rubber bushing with a screw or bolt that goes through it. Well I seem to be missing the one on the left, because I am sure there was probably one there. How important is this part to get right away...makes me wonder since it has a bushing? And I am sure my dealer doesn't have that stocked or much less anything else.

Sorry for the long post....Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I will definitely get the gel coat touch up then. Yea I have seen the wax in walmart many of times, I just didn't know how good it was for the gel coat. Thanks.

As for the bolt question I asked about. The more I have looked around on the internet and seen pictures, I am almost convinced there wasn't one there. Havn't been able to see it on any parts diagram or anything. So maybe there was just one on the far right side.
