Brief Description:  Damage while building

I spend a lot of time staring and thinking as opposed to building. Hard to keep track of actual hands on time.
I have aligned the frame on the stringers and and the holes in the hull. Now frame will come out and I will go back to the fuel tank stage. Then gear acuators, etc. While frame is out, I'll clean up the hull and my errors. Take it from me, the hull is delicate. During my work to set up the proper alignment, I gouged the hull edge from the inside buy a bolt end on the frame. Crap! I suggest a hoist. Anyway, the gel coat cracked on the outside. Off to the internet to locate some gel coat repair kits. I needed to anyway for another gel coat chip that came on the hull.. It either happened as a result of shipping in the crate or it came from the contractor PA uses. It wasn't initially apparent. I found it by doing the tap test to find voids. That's when I noticed a small circular, hairline crack. When I poked at it, some gel coat came off. I am not at all worried about it because it is something that is easy to fix and it won't be the last time. The SR's gel coat is so very thing that it will be something to do quite often in the future.
