I am bringing my boat to the " chair" and the "Ram" to be repaired next time. Your prices are terrific and I will hold both of you to the quotes ha ha.

Sorry guys way short on the cost ........don't forget 50 gallons of resin plus hardener, hundreds of feet of fibre glass cloth both fuzzy and bi axle, plus many 8x4 sheets of dyna core and thermal foam.......and the kick in the nuts and bolts..........66 hrs labour for Francis and his helper....... ( I was more of a hinderance ha ha)

I just noticed ARRC 's quote sorry ramchair your quote sucks, I'm taking it to my new friend ARRC next time.........

If I hadn't helped him John as a boat slave, this price would have been bang on, in fact his quote without my help was 8,500..... Good guess

Still gotta go down Ram......
