I'm not sure this was a race boat Tinker. I was envisioning maybe a 24' powerplay or something similar. To come off a trailer because the boob forgot to secure the lock imlpies a roller trailer to me. Don't see many race boats on roller trailers. What is the boat Jill?

Believe me a boat can come off a bunk trailer if the bunks are wet like they would be if they were pulling it out.
I once was trying to move my boat back on the trailer and loosened up the strap and backed the boat in but it didn't move. So I loosened it up more and tried it again.
It didn't move untill it was 1/2 way up the ramp - scared the crap out of me.

This is an insurance claim. Take lots of pics and document conversations dates etc.

A third party needs to be involved to acess the damage and proper repair.

Good luck as it could result in a legal battle, but that is what insurance will help you with.

I WOULD SAY PICTURES RIGHT NOW ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT BEFORE THEY TOUCH IT. SOUNDS LIKE THEY ACTUALLY DROPPED THE BOAT ON THE RAMP. A LICENCED SURVEYOR AND INSURANCE MAN SHOULD GET INVOLVED. I WOULD INSIST ON SOMEONE ELSE FIXING IT IF POSSIBLE TO MAKE SURE IT IS FIXED RIGHT AND NOT JUST PATCHED UP TO LOOK GOOD, ANY JOB WILL LOOK GOOD FOR THE FIRST YEAR. GLASS WORK IS A ART AND IF THE IS STRUCTUAL DAMAGE IT WILL ALWAYS COME APART FROM MOVEMENT
