Re: Dauntless 13 - Rotten Wood - opinions needed
Jim, Thanks very much for your input. I contacted BW customer service to see if they can provide a drawing of the transom. If I have a drawing showing transom wood locations I'll consider repairing the transom. I'm more concerned about all the wood under the floor being rotten--that would be a deal ...

Dauntless 13 - Rotten Wood - opinions needed

Dauntless 13 Gel Coat Crazing and Cracks

I have seen how some people have successfully repaired this. I'm concerned that the extent of these cracks could represent a st...
