Stix, they use some kind of quick set gel/ epoxy repair to seal it? MB

yes but it didn't really help was just falling out, told Brian they should put it on some heavy plastic sheeting and tape it in place till it sets which is about twenty minutes.

A piece of mat and some resin would have worked. Surprised the end of the jetty wasn't marked with a nav aid.

it was on the leeward side, if had been on the other they wouldn't have been able to get it off.

Familiar rocks, about a mile long. One of the more hazardous places to bring groups of high school kids, lots of places to take a bad fall, spots that get wet like ice to walk on too. But..... dolphins, sea turtles and fishermen after red drum. Lots of close-up shipping traffic too. Head offshore off the channel and they got oil tankers lined up like a parking lot.

Whatever that guy paid for that boat it was worth it.

Fortunately nobody got hurt...

I've done a few boating screw ups which still haunt me but nobody got hurt...
Live and learn and I'm glad everything worked out for the best.

motors run fine, just going to need new props and skags welded on. Think Brian will repair the motors and hull himself. He's got a big shop, he use to build boats and restore cars.

At least the slags can be rewelded and the props replaced!
Although I’d hate to price those props nowadays 😬

It is a pain in the ass to epoxy upside down. I let the pot start to kick off first and become almost a putty.

Field repair in the middle of nowhere involves either pulling a polytarp around the hull or mixing dock styrofoam from beach flotsam with a bit of gasoline. For small craft anyway.

Roger, thanks for sharing. I enjoyed following along once you told us Brian was okay. You kids will be out killing fish again soon.

That's great. A god of some type must have been looking out for him.
