Guys,

Any idea what I might be getting myself into here?

What does it look (or feel) like on the INSIDE of the hull to deck joint shown as far as structural damage is concerned??

In any case, a lot of work and some $$ even for a DIY job. Could be difficult to access for a "proper" repair job.

Recommend showing photos to repair professionals to get some idea of costs in time and $.

Just some food for thought.

nicktulloh's pictures of his boat's damage.  
It's a lot of grinding, filling, and sanding and painting here is his 'work to be done'.

skip.











--> use the 'DIRECT' code {copy/paste} from Photobucket and place that code between the [ img ] * [ img ] where the * is.

The [ img ] [ img ] is placed in the post from clicking on the insert image icon that looks like a 'blue sky-trees-yellow sand-and a beach' right to the left of the insert flash pin wheel some say that icon looks like a spoke wagon wheel.

that will buff right out 

Is it just the gelcoat or is the fiberglass underneath it also gone?  I have some stress cracks and chipping in the same area on my 19 but nowhere as bad.

I dont think it would be too awful bad to repair. But first would be to remove the black rubrail so that a better view of this is seen. It would need removed to make the repair anyway..... and I have to ask what is the backing material in the picture?

I would outline a process of repair, but would rather see the rubrail off first.
It is not a simple job, but not a bad job if you know somewhat about what you are doing.

It's not mine. Even I don't hit the dock that hard.

I'm going to pass ....
