Looks like structural movement in the joint.

The least intrusive fix would be to sand out the damage and re glass the area with finish cloth and some surf board resin with a UV additive and some flex agent.

The best repair will require extensive sanding and refinishing all the exposed wood.

Pretty touchy repair honestly, too detail oriented for me...

CHROMEY,
Contact Jeff Glow at Smooth as Glass in River Bank, Ca. Smooth As Glass <smoothasglass@sbcglobal.net>
See what he has to say. Don't take up too much of his time as my Hallett is up there getting some stress cracks taken care of.
I hope I get my boat back before Mother's Day.
Tell him I recommended him to you.
Looking forward to seeing you and the rest of the crew this summer.
THD
