It is a little overwhelming to cut your boat like that....

I won't do that again!

Now to fix some imperfections on the cutout and paint it with Awl Grip.

Then to the gel coat guy for transom repair.

Hi Wally -

I use a small shop up in Antioch - Contour Fiberglass. The owner Riley is a good guy and they have always done a nice job for me.

Hope all is well, Happy Holidays!!

AH! Contour.....i know those guys as well....i keep forgetting about them...they once come down here to Glenview to fix my boss's boat when he launched his old sea-ray a little too hot down the ramp and i couldn't get to the thing in time to stop it from smashing into the steel piling! Needless to say they fixed up the corner almost as good as new...they do good work.

I had to create a new account to sell my personal things in the Swap area. Advertisers can't post there any longer.

I always forget who I am - Pantera28, Ateco, Jurinek...

Keeps you clowns on your toes.

I might see if they will gel the back in my garage, it's only a few blocks from them.
