On our way out sunday to go white marlin fishing. Hit a boat lift in the tight canal and meet a 5/8" bolt to the hull. I should have taken this as omen for the day. Need help on fixing it picture dosen't show it but is about 6-7' long.

Sorry Capt. Frank; I've committed my share of sideswipes as well.

Ouch that looks deep. I had one of those from a bolt on the dock in the Marina I used to keep it in. Mine was small so when we repowered the glass guy that helped me fixed it. If you are good at Gel coat and matching paint give it a go other wise get a professional.

I don't care how good they are, you are going to see the repair unless you re-paint.

For some reason I can't seem to get a PM to you.. Drop me an email with a phone number and I will call you. Best to include a good time to call, since I know you fire guys work odd hours.
