OUCH! I only ever back off my safety chain so its easier to undo at the water and not hold anyone up but NEVER take it off. Least the beers are flowing nicely now

happy days ahead summer is coming
Hahahaha get a few upfront
what, that repair cost you $1500?
yes it did i thought the same
I think the repair cost would be about right. Grinding back to solid glass. Dry out the area. Build up the glass structurally to a surface 2mm below original gelcoat. Cure overnight.
Start the multi coat gelcoat painting. Brush or spray.
Then probably a day spent sanding and polishing. 2/3 days work involved.
$500 per day.

I got a whole transom, stringers, front bulkhead and floor redone in my haines 490SLC from arnolds for $6K, seems a bit pricey, but it does look like a good job
you did go through insurance didn't you?
Originally sent the damage pictures through for a rough quote they quoted $900 but when I took the boat in it went up to 1500 as there was around 4 layers of glass and to get a good finish the had to sand heaps of gel coat back so they could blend in over the edge and they had it 6 days and it is a smick job they did well IMO
No I was not going through insurance as I thought no point at 900 but just scrounged around for another 600
fair enough
