    My Boat has been repaired. I used Adam Webb basically because he was closest to me. His quote was very reasonable. He got it done very quickly and did a very good job. The Manufacturer did an excellent job of standing behind it's product. It is Lowe Boats. They worked with me directly. They did not require me to drive to the nearest dealer which was in Tuscumbia, AL about 2 hours away. They told me to find a local welder to fix the boat. I sent them the written quote on a Wednesday evening and I got an approval the first thing Thursday morning. So all worked out very well for something that could have become a real pain in the A$$.

    It looks like the cracks have been packed full of mud. Or, is that just a poor pic?

    Something does not look right in that picture..... Not sure what I am looking at, but that does not APPEAR to be a "good job"...... Maybe it is just the photo?

    Moores Feed in Pontotoc has an excellent welder named Marty. He fixed some cracks for me last week. Very reasonable. They can do axles, anything needed.

    Looked better in the original pic. Hope new paint helps to hide that weld job.

    I swear I have to throw myself to the mercy of the jury, I am the victim of a case of bad photography and excessive glare. How did such a nice repair get cast in such a bad way? No Worries, Bruce was happy, good fisherman but I doubt NatGeo will be chasing him down for that new chief photog position. While I am at it, as a new member, this site's OS does not like fast typers!!
