Buying fiberglass boat that ran aground and needs keel repair?
Howdy,
I have an offer to buy (very cheaply) a 24' keel fiberglass sailboat that has some damage to keel and needs repair. It is almost 30yo so I am afraid that any damage to fiberglass might have fractured a bit more than "a hairline crack" as owner describes. I have a lot of experience in sailing but none in boat ownership or repair - how expansive is is repairing fiberglass keel? What are the costs of dry-dock/ workspace? Is it something that can be done by a beginner (assuming I can have help from a very experienced carpenter/builder)? Thanks for any pointers/info, JT |
