boat fell off trailer!

[dschifan]

All right guys, been doing this for 15 years, while pulling my 208 lavey craft sebring out of the water on sunday at parker, the arm holding the eyebolt of the boat pulled through and the boat slid off the trailer, half landing in the water, half on the launch ramp. I have some gelcoat damage and a couple of deep scratches in the bow. it did not damage the fiberglass just chipped the gelcoat. Does anyone know a good place to take it to get the gelcoat repaired and the color matched. I live in the LA, Orange County area.
Thanks

There was a recent thread on this in the Jets section Too. He thought maybe he had pulled the trailer in too deep and when he pulled it out it did the same thing.

sorry to hear,
For me, my old boat (ultra) when towing, i would break off the eye due to the bouncing on the trailer. Now this was back when the 21 footers were connected with a pin, and not a wench. Broke at least 5 bow eyes, the screw would just snap at the nut :skull:

[boatnam2]

his number is 951-205-0986,i told him you might be calling him.he will get it done right way quicker then anyone else.
