JEM Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 Nope. They are not available. It can be repaired by a good fiberglass man. If done right, you will never know is happened. Ask me how I know this...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishmanjj Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 I've been there / done that on my 2400v........ no fun at all. JEM had his fixed and they look "brand new"..of course, he is a neat nik and the whole boat is spotless. My anchor hatch door was not latched one time while towing and it flew open and ripped off at both hinges...luckily it was laying in floor when I got to the boat landing. I've also had the "self tapping" screws in the center bow hatch door hinges come loose. Never could figure why PF would have two screws self tap directly into fiberglass with all the pounding a hatch takes , strange thing is the other ones are small threaded screws with nuts on them.

scgator Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 @JEM @david Terry @fishmanjj I have the same issue on my anchor locker... Any chance yall have a ballpark of price for this to get repaired? I know fiberglass work can get expensive and I want to make sure I am getting decent quotes.

JEM Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 I don't have a specific price because I have never gotten one specific repair done by itself. I would think that repairing something like above would be less than $200, and the repair would not be noticeable afterward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishmanjj Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 I agree with JEM, a good fiberglass guy can fix that and you won't be able to tell....should not be over $ 200 for sure. Check all your other hatches because it will be cheaper to fix several at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubble Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 That is probably a simple glass repair for any decent glass guy. I had two hinges do the same thing. Had a glass guy in KY glass in an aluminum plate to help keep that from happening again. Looks great on the outside. Inside isnt so clean but looks dont matter to the rods that are in there.
