Hull Repair - Cutting Out the Side of the Boat
A recent project: At Henderson Mariners
Marina in Henderson Harbor New York, we were fixing some major damage to
the hull of an ex-police boat.
The Starboard side of the hull was
damaged in a previous mishap, and was poorly repaired. Stress cracks and
delamination run throughout the repair area. Our plan is to remove the
damaged area completely and build it new.
Here, Gary makes the first cut with a
Skill Saw...
After the section has been cut out and
removed...
Close up of the inside, looking from the
outside...
Gary - goofing off as usual, stops to
ponder where the heck he is!
Finished... All new fiberglass
installed, some minor shaping work on the outside, gelcoated and bottom
painted...
