Ran aground this weekend........
I had the unfortunate pleasure of meeting a high spot in the bay this weekend. Got stuck in the mud and the engine died. I got lucky and was pulled out by harbor patrol and boat restarted fine. Now I have missing paint on my bravo I skeg and it is slightly bent on the backside point. I have some scrapes under the hull which looks like it wore the gelcoat down and is now black. Also have very small nicks in the prop. Is is an easy repair to fix the skeg and the fiberglass. Anyone know a ballpark price for something like that? Anything else I should get checked out? Thanks.

Re: Ran aground this weekend........
Hold a small sledge hammer firmly on the back side of the skeg and use a hammer on the other side and slowly tap it back in shape. Work your way towards the end. Gotta have something on the backside. Kinda like a blacksmith anvil procedure.
No hammer on back side= high chance of breaking the skeg off. |
