While attempting to dock in 35+mph winds I hit the dock with the front end of the boat. Wouldn't you know that the dock had a piece of plate steel sticking over the lip of wood. The damage is not severe and way high of the water line so leakage is not a problem. The damage is about 1.5 inches ling and 3/4 of a inch wide. Is there a quick repair to keep this from getting worse? Maybe a small clear coat over the top or something I could brush on to seal it back up? Thanks.
