    Unbelievable. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes..........
I don't know guys.  I certainly have to give him credit for a valiant attempt on that repair.  That aside, I just have to say (unfortunately), I might have to decline an invitation to go offshore in that thing. I may be very busy that day,.......cutting my toenails.

If you were to come step inside the boat and jump on top of the repaired areas, you might have a different opinion. I do plan to foam fill the entire boat like that of a Boston Whaler. Your feedback is appreciated though!  :circling_shark:

The video was awesome, keep it coming!

I want to know about the benefits of vacuum sealing the area versus just laying mat over it and rolling it out too

He explained the reason for vacuuming on both sides. It was because he was doing a wet on wet patch on both sides of the hull and wanted to make sure both patches adhered to one another. Hope that helps.
