Costs on repairs recommended by surveyer...on 91 Cat 30 MKII

[Blue Streak]

Would appreciate anyone out there who has had these items repaired in past year or two giving us an idea of the cost:

1. Repair 6 quarter size blisters on hull
2. Sand, scrape, clean and re-paint the hull
3. Rebed 6 chainplates
4. Replace worn bronze Cutlass Bearing with stainless steel one
5. Prior lower FRP rutter repair is not adhering well. What is cost to reglass it? FYI - rutter is bent aft at 7 degrees but is serviceable.

Thank you!

1. Repair 6 quarter size blisters on hull - $000 - pop 'em yourself with a drill.
2. Sand, scrape, clean and re-paint the hull - +/- $1200 with haul, paint, other costs
3. Rebed 6 chainplates - $000 - do 'em yourself, you'll learn a lot and have them done right.
4. Replace worn bronze Cutlass Bearing with stainless steel one - $400 +/- mostly labor, you can buy a tool to do it if you're handy, but most yards have them
5. Prior lower FRP rutter repair is not adhering well. What is cost to reglass it? FYI - rutter is bent aft at 7 degrees but is serviceable. - +/- $400 - a few hours work plus materials for the rudder

You could also talk to a couple of yards and get quotes. That's what I do.

Good luck with your repairs.
