A week ago we hired a company to cut & buff the fiberglass so we have been looking at the surface a lot since it was totally botched. (Different issue. :facepalm) This am we saw a curving crack that runs in an arc from one edge of a side wall around to the adjacent wall - not straight in a direction.

Any ideas how to trouble shoot or resources to research? Not sure of the depth yet.

Note. We are full time & stationary. It has not been moved since locating here.
I don't think it's a crack, it looks more like a scratch. BUT if it is a crack, then immediately stop its progress by drilling a small hole at the ends of the crack. Now you need to consider how to deal with it. I had one and used a special formula, epoxy that has some flex in it. It looks like hell, but it will never break there again.
Hole size? big enough that the crack doesn't go around it, roughly 3/16 but +- 1/16 should be ok.
