Glad everyone is alright Pat. If we can help in any way let me know.

Thanks for all of the nice thoughts and offers.
I'll post some pics this week, but believe me when I tell yea, the hull and deck are done.
Depending on how the insurance company handles the loss, I may be stripping the running gear to sell off or use on another hull in the future.
Right now, I'm just thanking the big guy upstairs that we didn't get seriously hurt, or worse.

Pat ,like i said get well , curious what r your thoughts on how the boat handled the incident ?

Pat, sorry to here about the boat, glad you guys are not seriously hurt... FX10 is the only one to put it back together if at all possible... The new 30Y2K with the Stainlees Rub Rail according to Rick is screwed, through bolted and glassed at the deck/ hull seam... When he was doing it he was showing me step by step what he was doing and was very into it... Now I know why ...

Pat hope you got my call ! I guess even the most experianced boater can get into trouble !! I know the first thing you did when you got home was kiss your kids !! Im glad all walked away safely !! With something other than a superboat it mite have been worse !! You need something call !!

Pat,
I could have sworn that it was you going past Brewers, I guess I was hoping it was you. I am very happy you were not seriously injured.

Glad there were no serious injuries!

I let my daughter sit in the front most of the time and this type of scenario always looms in my mind.

If your boat is considered "totalled" usually the insurance company will let you buy it back for the salvage value.

Yes, I'm sure that Rick could rebuild the boat with a new deck but I'm quite sure it would not be worth the $$ and all of the effort. I took some pics and I'll post them later.
As for the hull and deck joint, it was just screwed, not glassed together. Rick didn't build my boat, it is a 1997.

Again, thanks to everyone for their thoughts and offers.

I'm off today to do some yard work, I'll give you a shout later.

Hi Joe,
You probably saw Peter (White 28' Pantera) bring Bobby into the town dock.
Yes, I did motor the boat back into Chester creek, but you would have noticed the damage.
