I bought a 1978 southwind jetboat last year. Hit a tree stump doing about 15 mph. I'd love to keep it, but it's going to need a whole new bottom according to the repair shop. I'm committed to doing the work. I'm pretty versatile when it comes to learning new trades but understand that fiberglass is no walk in the park. This boat has been around since 78, why let it go now? Anyways, here are some pics of the fun year me and a buddy (prior co-owner) had.

It's more like a  rip probably half the length of the boat. The stringer on the drivers side is cracked also.

I'll be getting it back from the estimator next week, the floor should be cut out, I'll get some good pics then.
