paypal sent. thanks for making this happen

Thanks to all who posted. I think i'l do a simple Gflex epoxy repair myself without a patch for starters. I'll drill a small hole at the end of the crack...and leave the aluminum gunwale on for the repair. Then use. file to chisel out a channel along the crack on the interior and exterior of...

Thanks for the responses. ...I haven't read them yet but will now. I see that my photos didn't come through..so trying again this way.
