Although Hornback boats are built to be sturdy, sometimes something happens and repairs are needed. Our boats have been designed with future repairs in mind. We can take apart an entire boat and put all new parts on it to breathe life into one that has been injured, neglected, or lovingly enjoyed for many, many years. What we have seen is that most damage happens off the water, a boat comes off the car in transit, the straps are over-tightened, etc. On the water, your boat can take a lot of abuse. Most of this ' is cosmetic wear and tear but shouldn't affect the boat's performance. From wrapping around a river rock to forgetting to take the boat off the roof when you go into the garage, our boats can bounce back to give you many more years of enjoyment.
