Venture Ed... perhaps we should move this to a seperate discussion. I have however thought about this subject way to much and I believe there is a market. In an age of CAD and 3D printers it couldn't be that hard. Maybe a mold kit? Something the DIYers simply buy and then pour the resin in. The challenge I had was doing one side at a time and not being able to touch the other to one was dry. Anyway Ed, maybe we should start a new thread and do some market research. I've seen many, many sailors here with the same problem. Maybe it's not a million dollar business, but it could be some great side money. I would have paid at least $500 to avoid the job... maybe more. No maybe about it... in retrospect, I might have paid a grand!
