Got a few new gouges in the Ranger this weekend docking the boat. Apparently the wife doesn't know what "don't let the boat hit the dock" means. LOL

Anyways, I may or may not decide to get the gouges repaired since the boat is a 2010.

Does anyone have a recommendation of a repair shop in the Twin Cities that works on fiberglass boats and can touch up the scratches/gouges?

Thanks - Midge

Georges in East Bethel.
Shipwreck in Princeton.

If paying out of pocket be prepared to sit down. Repairing fiberglass isn't cheap but these guys do a great job.

They did work on my skeeter glad I have insurance on it. Very happy with the work they did I would go back if I have any other mishaps.

I would assume you can find someone if the Chicago land area but if not D&S marine in Roscoe(Rockford) did a really good job for me. Gets the gel match from the manufacturer and it's like new.

If you don't want to pay a Grand or two , just spend $20-$30 on a couple Muskie or fishing Stickers and cover the bad spots...
Being in the Industrial Fiberglass/Painting business for over 40 years I may start a small repair shop soon after Retiring.....

Yeah, that's what we need, more boats uglied up with stickers.

I've had fiberglass repairs that ranged from as low as $400 for a few small gouges up to $8000 for major hull work. Hopefully yours is on that low end.

I know of a few people who did not have good experiences with Anchor in Delano and needed to return for re-work, and a few other people who had great results there.

Stillwater Marine did great work for me the first time:
