Back in Jan I bought a 15ft fibreglass half cab. It was my second boat and I was pretty new to the whole scene having only owned a dinghy previously. The hull had been resprayed and I gambled on asking the owner to be straight with me and tell me if there was anything i should know.<br /><br />He said it was all fine... He 'misled' me...<br /><br />The hull has cracked twice and there are hairline lateral fractures all up it. The cross members have separated all along and my guess is that the internals are shot. <br /><br />My dilemma is that I don't want to (and won't) respray it sell it on to someone else. I don't want some other poor bugger feeling as much of a **** as I have. It is patched and sitting in a yard at present at a very low price, but I am wondering if I can fix it myself.<br /><br />Can someone tell me how hard it is to rip up the floor, replace whatever needs doing and re-attach the crossmembers to the hull? And what would be the cost of materials? A best guess is all I'm looking for.<br /><br />The guy who did the patch on it was talking $2500.00 for him to do it. That aint gonna happen!<br /><br />Can I do it myself?
