Our Brio was hit in the stern while in slip by a wayward Doral. A dockmate had a mechanical failure in 15k winds and hit us hard first then bounced lightly into another boat. Unfortunately, his wife tried to intervene between 30,000lb of boats and suffered a badly sprained ankle. Could have been much worse...
Starboard stern rail is crushed 4" forward, and bolts sheared. Backstay turnbuckle is bent into a "Z". Thankful no damage to fiberglass. Backstay will be replaced this week, and I hope to sail this weekend.
Has anyone had to replace a stern rail or bow pulpit? Any feedback on led time through Catalina?
