Us South Texas rednecks would flip that boat over and weld it.

Stupid center console made it more complicated to flip than I wanted to deal with.

That weld bead will probably cost you 10 knots of speed with the drag and may make the boat wander a little. ;D
So when is the maiden voyage?

I know it! I didn't plate over the other holes because I didn't want extra drag. I'll epoxy them (and carry a roll of flex seal tape).

Crabbing is picking up fast and the fall salmon run is on. Hopefully I can get lines in the water in the next two weeks.

Is the need enough? Or does the want suffice?

Boating is not a cost v benefit sport. You gotta want to do it, the rest is all downhill from there.  ;)

Now.... welding....on a project? Thats where you weigh the purchase price + time and materials side of the equation for the final outcome of what it is worth. Sounds like you made that decision.

Phil Swift would surely approve of this repair.

I rest my case.

While she looked great in those pics she hit the wall when she aged, time was not kind to her all in the looks department after hitting the wall.

Until you remember the giant unshaved beavers they had back them . A cocksman of the day carried his own hedge trimmers.
