I have 2 1.25" holes in my transom that need filled due to the removal of the thru-hull pickups. The pickups fed intercoolers & are no longer needed.
What is a fair price for a basic repair?

retail you would be in the six to eight hundred range, dowel plugged and gelcoat matched. You might find prices for half that from shops with light workload looking to get some traffic. Off the top of my head . . . .
