Is the hull fiberglass with gelcoat finish?

I would contact the seller to see if they might pay shipping as well. Send them a pic of the damage. Many sellers will work with a customer.
If they won't work with you, then simple epoxy should fix this.

sorry this is my first ever fiber boat.. and the seller told me to contact horizon
westbeach: gelcoat do you mean the thing that fallen off the cab?
dom: simple epoxy do you mean the thing that held the screw ring? can you give more detail?
It is a fibreglass hull with a paint finish, was the box damaged when you received it. The dude you purchased it from is MIA. Use a two part epoxy 30 minutes or longer to fix it

here the pics, the box arrived rather intact at all sides which makes me feel that this boat do suffer from some build quality problem
Come on D.Jordan send him a hull..................................This is were we all say BUY FROM OSE, sorry about that. Two ways to fix, easy way see if you can part it 1-2mm and use epoxy as stated above. If you use micro balloons it will even be white! Or use fiberglass resin and hardener the same way. Epoxy is easier and widely available just use a good one.
Epoxy or autobody filler works well, just make sure you sand the area of the chip a little more to get some good adheasion.

i havent run nor fixed it yet. i have grabbed 2 brands of epoxy to try it out but i found its quite difficult to open some gap for filling without making it worse..!
for the rust, yes, but how come? its should be lot easier to fix than the crack with WD40 tho
side note: i didnt get any single reponse from horizon so far
