Thread: Crack

    No, not the stuff you smoke. I tried posting this in other rooms, but didn't get much of a response, so I thought I would try here. Back on Memorial Day I cracked the bottom of my 18 Sanger jet boat. I took it to a local body shop trying to get it "patched" to get me through the summer. First time I took it out again was this weekend, and the patch didn't hold. Who knows of someone who can fix this "correctly". I live in Bowling Green KY, and will deliver to a shop within a reasonable distance to have this problem fixed. CA or AZ at this point isn't reasonable. Also since I have never bought a new boat, does anyone know what kind of financing terms would be considerable normal (months). TIA.

    Your profile doesn't say where you are, but if you're SoCal or AZ, call Todd @TRG

    Hey ARS guy, how do I get ahold of you as well??? Don't have a digital camera. It is actually 2 cracks about 6" apart that was patched. They are both probably a foot long. Do you do custom paint as well?
