When I was at the Fountain factory this summer, and this boat came up in conversation about bonding the hull and deck. As unbelievable as it sounds, it has been repaired as you stated.

Re: Whoops

Yeah, you gotta wonder just what was salvageble to the point it was worth repairing? I see the that dash would have been OK. Had to have been very close to a break even point.
