Repairable, but being that I haven't heard from the fibreglass guy for three weeks I'm thinking I should've just bought a new hull. It's either going to be a horrendous bill, or he just hasn't had time to work on it. I'm hoping its the latter.

Unless you've got a pile of bits and pieces left almost anything is repairable. It's just making sure you don't cross that line of replacement vs. repair costs.


That's a pretty easy repair. It's in a nice flat section of hull with no non-skid to deal with. You can lay up flat patches and flat pieces parts to fill and repair. If it wasn't right in front of the front beam, I wouldn't hesitate to seal it with packing tape and keep sailing (it is probably a structural problem with where it appears to be, however).
