Moisture Intrusion in Fiberglass Hulls

Moisture intrusion occurs when water enters cored or laminated fiberglass structures through deck penetrations, fittings, poorly sealed hardware, impact points, or compromised surfaces. In Jacksonville, weather and marina conditions can allow water to migrate into areas that are not visible during a casual inspection.

Buyers should review this issue alongside the common problems found during marine surveys in Jacksonville page and the how to read a marine survey report page.
