Repairs

That first scratch is always the worst!
While Hornbeck boats are built tough, but sometimes things happen and a repair is necessary. Our boats have been designed with repair in mind. We can take apart an entire boat, put all new parts on it to breathe life into a boat that has been injured, abused, or lovingly enjoyed for many, many years. What we have seen is that most damage is actually done outside 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. A majority of this 'damage' is cosmetic wear and tear and shouldn't affect the boats 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.

Quick tip: If you find yourself with a leak, a simple piece of Duct Tape will often work as a temporary repair.

Complete solo rebuild

before and after


Here is a general list of repairs and costs. We will do an assessment of your boat when you drop it off and discuss what needs to be done and how much it will cost. A few repairs can be done while you wait, but this must be discussed and scheduled ahead of time.

Simple Hull Patches
Most cracks in the hull are what is considered a "stress crack". If the boat is not leaking, these are considered mostly cosmetic and do not need to be worried about. We can place a reinforcement patch on the inside to avoid any further spread if requested.
Usually, we can do these while you wait; often for free. Call in advance, as an appointment is necessary.
