    UBB's destroyed my gelcoat...

    Not having seen the damage in person, I can't tell you for sure that no water is penetrating into the exposed fiberglass. You have two things to repair. The boat and the trailer. Obviously the boat needs to come off the trailer at some point, and I would do that first. Any repair attempt on the...

    195 HOi stress cracks

    Good thinking...the dealer rarely fixes things like this. They typically farm it out or bring in a journeyman repair guy. Ask around, it shouldn't be too hard to find the "Go to guy" for gel coat repair in your neck of the woods.

    So it doesn't appear to be the spark plugs...need some help here - RESOLVED

    Glad you got it figured out. You wouldn't have been able to see the water looking down from above. You have to use a clear jar to see it. Time to install the Racor fuel/water separators! http://ph.parker.com/us/17583/en/high-pressure-fuel-filters-water-separator You don't want to go though this...

    UBB's destroyed my gelcoat...

    The cost will depend largely on whether you do it yourself or hire someone to do it. In this instance there isn't that much coverage area that I can see, but there could be more hidden by those boards. There is a pretty good video on removing a boat from the trailer: Once you get it off...

    195 HOi stress cracks

    Define "Normal". There are so many variables involved when it comes to stress fractures, spider cracks, hazing, whatever you want to call it. It happens for many reasons. If it's normal for a manufacturer to make errors when applying gel coat, then YES it's normal. But it really isn't...

    Naples/ Marco Island for Labor Day 2015

    so I guess that limits it to just one stripper pole? :rolleyes: Of course I'm kidding, sounds like the makings of a great holiday get-a-way. Hope you guys have a blast! I will be far away from anything resembling a crowd. :cool:

    Cop pulls a gun on a Yamaha jetboat owner!!??

    That was hilarious, but true. I agree with all of them but the last one...sometimes it can actually help. About 25-30 years ago I was driving on the freeway with my girlfriend at the time and we were in a "heated discussion" - yeah, she was doing her best to rip me a new one. Well with all that...

    I do remember that. You could be on to something.

    Hull damage

    Absolutely, I'll pm my number. And yes, you'll want to remove any material that is loose. You need a solid, clean surface. Prep is the key to a good repair.

    Ah, well in light of the new details it sounds like gas isn't an issue, have fun chasing those electrical gremlins...not on my list of fun things to do.o_O

    Hull damage

    ^what he said...this is your course to return it to the original condition, but better. You see, that was most likely caused by a void in the original construction of the boat...a bubble if you will. Bruce is very practical. I had a somewhat similar situation with my keel. Fortunately the...

    @Scarab255 , you wrote: "I'm not going to say don't buy a boat from them and that they have the worst all around customer support that I've ever dealt with" You don't have to say it....I will - Those guys Suck A**!! Sue 'em! The Lemon Laws DO work. My son in law and my best buddy had Ford...

    New Hog for John Daly

    Interpret that as you may: You see, He posted this of him and his fiancee Anna Cladakis on a Harley-Davidson recently with the caption "luvin' my ride!" Well, I'm not one to bash another man's ride...BUT, his new girl has a very interesting background.. Outback Steakhouse founder and...

    BOATS & BIKES

    BOTH...and that's an old picture, many of those toys have been upgraded to newer models as the kids got older, I got my wife a new bike for her B-Day and I don't know how it happened, but I woke up one day and there was a turbo on the RZR! By the way I have two of the small bikes for sale in...
