Fiberglass repair

[Pakmule]

I do all my own fiberglass repair for stuff like that. It's a piece of cake. Not that I keep damaging my hull. I buy used boats. Yeah that's it...

On a side note I grew up in Stevenson, CT. I have lots of fond memories of Lake Zoar. Well that and the tremendous fear of the ghosts of the drowned people when they flooded the town.

My buddy Al is a commercial diver (lives next door to me too) and he said it is incredibly weird being down there.

I am more afraid of the wood chipped wife's ghost, she haunts the upper part of the lake, and boy is she mad :wow:

Has he ever brought a camera down? I bet it is creepy as heck.

No, he is not allowed to film anything due to the security of the sites. THis is when he was on Stevenson dam, and they did a little exploring to check silt deposits etc...

He also works on the nuke plants often in the pools, which he said is surreal with the glowing spent rods :wow:

Talk about an occupation you could talk about for hours, he has some stories of stuff that makes those reality shows about dangerous/gross jobs look like a joke.

This is a copy of Sea Ray's flat rate guide. Our dealership follows it for both Warranty & Retail work. However, not all marina/dealers will follow the same flat rates. Flat rates do not include travel time, or haul outs.
