Does anyone have a clue how I can fuel up at a milk cow but keep my hull status?
Or at least get the repair time for the hull down to zero?

Just docked at a milk cow and stayed there for 11 Days because the hull was completely repaird.

When you know your going to use a milch cow change resupply days to 1 in SH3 Commander. Hull will still be repaired but at least you will be on your way in a day.

Isn't it that same when I change this value from the basic.cfg:

NbDaysInBase=1

down to 1 so I only spend 1 day in base?

That's what I already did but I still get 11 days extra because of 11% hull damage.
The days I get for the hull damage are the problem.

Usually extra days like this are associated with equipment destroyed while on patrol. If you look in the basic.cfg, search for the "TimeRecovery". This represents the amount of time required to repair the item when in port. I'm not currently aware of a similar setting for hull integrity (may be hard coded, but I haven't looked hard for it). Please note that setting the TimeRecovery to zero doesn't stop the item from being repaired, only reduces the incremental time in port.

There is no other equipment damaged, only hull is on 89%.

Thought about editing the save file to get hull to 100% but don't have a clue how to do that. Anyone else?

By now I have atleast found out how to manipulate the departure date so no hanging around for days or weeks till hull is repaired.

But still no clue how to edit hull damaged.

Why you just don't do what Hemisent suggested? That's the easiest way to solve the problem.
