Is this fixable?

[Titan7]

I am still looking at used boats, this one is nice except for this. What are the odds of getting this repaired so you could not see the repair site. Is this a $500-$1000 fix? Kind of hard to make this purchase without knowing what the final outcome will be.
thanks!

That's a lofty goal, particularly given that the damage is in a faded area. It can be made to look really, really good. Your best hope is to find someone really good who can make it unnoticeable.

I had a couple like that. I brought my boat to Wilkes marine and he has a guy that comes to his shop and does it there. Turned out awesome. I'm sure there are other places also but his guy did a great job on my fixes. :D

My guess is it would cost you 4x that much to make it so you could never see it. I have some small stress cracks and I was amazed at how much they wanted to fix them.

$2k-$4k to fix that? I highly doubt it would be close to that. In fact his guess of $500-$1000 would be a lot closer IMO.

Yea, I guess because I had like 7 colors to blend. I can see what your saying. Scratch my comment.

I had a corner that I hit a dock with and it took a little chunk out of. It was white and a little into the blue. And I had the front regelled where the trailer had worn through it also and all done for around $600.

Thanks for the info.

I agree. He's reasonably priced, and he's really good at color match.

thats an easy fix. even large scratches like this are by far less work than a barely noticable stress crack. well to do it correctly anyway. give todd @ TRG fiberglass a call. BTW, gel coat doesnt fade like paint does. meaning the penetration of oxidation is far less with gel coat and can be lightly color sanded and buffed to a clear deep shine very easy. if you like the boat, talk to the salesman/owner and come up with a discounted price for the trouble. $500-$1000 is completely fair.

Jeff at Smooth As Glass in Riverbank will make that better than new. PM me if you need the number. He did some excellant work on my boat.;)

A couple beers and 70 mph I'm sure no one would notice. :D

Easy fix, but the dealers usually have all the good guys in the summer hanging around their shop doing insurance work.
Put a DCB sticker over it:D :D :D
