Hey John

[SUSHII]

I must have missed it. What's wrong with your boat?

[timmaahh12]

They misspelled BULLET and put BLAZER on it...termites got to the bottom of his hull.

[JOHN202]

I hit something that was jagged and it peeled the gelcoat,paint and all down to the fiberglass right in front the pad area.Funny thing is i don't remember hitting anything that would have done that kinda damage, but its purty bad.
The guy thas fixin it says looked like i hit a pipe that was at an angle and thats why i probably did not know it.There was no water coming in, i just happened to crawl under the boat to pully some old grass off the frame and saw the damage. Hope to have it back by the end of the week,just got my check from the insurance co today.

who is doing the repair john? ...just curious

[JOHN202]

Tidwell fiberglass up in Pride.Its about 25 mins from the house.He does very good work and i have used him severaltimes over the years mainly for fixin scratches. He's got a Bullet that got recked pretty bad,and he's been working on that as well..

[bayoubullet]

I have seen him do several rebuild jobs like Sushi had done to his boat and they turned out real nice.Not sure what he charges for that, but he's good.

Sushi, the part that really pissed me off was when i went to Walmart to get a loner boat, all them Skeeter boys done took'em all and hauled azz,and now they don't wanna bring them back cause they way better then what they got...

[SUSHII]

Did it actually separate further than where the initial damage was

[JOHN202]

Not separate just continued to peel off the more i ran the boat. It was just in front the pad.In our last tx at the Cat i noticed i could not get over 78 mph so it musta happened before that.

[SUSHII]

My bro n law is doing a stratos right now that they may replace the entire hull because even though he hit something it shouldn't continue to peel off. Something to maybe think about

Could have told them it was a gas pipeline that belonged to BP, and you could have gotten you a check...
