So we had a high wind storm in buffalo ny august 4th my boats bow deck got damaged and some stress cracks developed on fiberglass along side also. Does anyone know a top notch fiberglass repair guy that works on boats around my area? I want this done right and i want the best guy around i am willing to drive an hour or so in any direction I have to. I am waiting for my insurance people to call me back at this point.

Buckle up, this thread is going to be a bumpy ride considering where your located. I would suggest Glass Dave.

Go into fiberglass and paint section. Virtually every thread has a Glass Dave post. He is another on here who is about the best in his field and gives it away (knowledge, not labor) on here free.
