Hey,
My boat was damaged during hurricane Sandy. She was on her mooring, prepared as best as I could. She didn't move but lots of other boats did. The next day I found some some other boat must have broken loose or dragged into me and my poor boat suffered from it. I can't complain as many people had it a lot worse, but I had broken lifelines, bent / broken stanchions, broken rub rail and and some hull damage. Fortunately I had insurance, and Allstate quickly sent a check. It took some time, but I finally had all the damage repaired.
Of course it quickly turned into a case of 'while you're in there' and I ended up with:
3 New stanchions and bases
New lifelines all around
New rub rail all around
New gate braces
New Standing Rigging
New Furlex 200S furler
New bottom paint
Polished topsides
New gelcoat on the stern
Freshly varnished companionway, handrails, etc.
Some before / after pics
I finally got to go sailing yesterday and it was great. The boat looks good and sailed great.
Take care,
Barry
