Well yes it is unsafe it is one of the sailboats that get up on its side. Also the owner chose the hack because I said it has to come out of water. This sponson is about the size of a canoe twice as long and it unbolts and the sailboat still floats. I will just stay quiet and I know I will see this job again in the very near future. Thanks everyone. I've had knots in my stomach over this repair he's doing and I honestly don't know why. My wife say sits because we spent a lot of time making a dam good reputation and this guy still butchers shot out ,,,

Yeah farmers. A few years back they used to just send us pizzas to show appreciation. Now they call first and ask everybody " how many pieces are you going to eat " But Farmers will cover us when others wont. That is worth something for sure.

If YES, I don't think I could keep my mouth shut.
If the owner is (or possibly new owner if it goes up for sale after completed)...
...heads out and the boat comes apart; and injury or worse takes place...
...I feel as though I'd have to speak up to the owner; or his friends.
+1 Don't see how it can hurt to let the adjuster know what you have been told and seen. It will pass the moral obligation to make a safe repair back to the ins company.

I'd ask myself if I would lose any sleep over not telling him or if some future event might cause me second thoughts about not saying anything. Then ask if you'd ever have a reason to lose sleep over mentioning it to him.

I speak my peace. Twice if warranted. Never three times.
