Hi all,
New to the forum and expect I will be spending lots of time here as my knowledge of boats is small.
I have a 1987 Sea Nymph 14K. It's a small and simple boat - been in our fam since new. Been out of the water a while and it needs some things. It's rated for a 15hp and has never had anything but a 6hp on it on freshwater lakes.
Most concerning issue to me are two small tears/cracks in aluminum on upper edges of transom. They are both finger length. My question is: how do a repair this to an acceptable level?
I can't weld - who do I hire to do work? Would a basic marine shop do this professionally and anyone have an idea of a fair price?
I can handle the other work but this is beyond my expertise.
