  1. Long story short, I have a brand new bimini top on my Trophy. While trailering last week I thought I had the top secured tightly however a gust of wind disagreed. Now I have a clean break in the aluminum support railing for the bimini. Is there any way to repair aluminum poles or do I have to suck it up and replace the railing on the month old top already?

    Thanks

  2. I just wanted to shoot you an update, I dropped her in the water today for about 6hrs and the fiberglass seems to be holding pretty well after some fishing and walking on it. Its not 100% but I'm pretty sure it will hold for the season. Thanks again for all the help and maybe I'll suck it up and spend a couple hundred to replace it next season.

  3. Hey guys, I tried the fiberglass resin & cloth repair yesterday. Come to find out my floor panel does in fact have a wood core inside the fiberglass shell which of course was cracked open. I did the job inside a 65' garage and it appeared solid as a rock within 3 hours. I stepped on it this morning and it made some creaking noise but it was 22' here this morning and despite the noise it was pretty solid. I'll let you know how its holding up in a week or so. Thanks for the suggestions and good luck bluewater.

    If this doesn't hold I will cut out the wood, replace, and try again.

  4. I just upgraded to a 21ft Trophy. The boat has a large livewell in the floor on the starboard side next to the I/O motor cover. It has a fiberglass cover that you walk on and is in a high traffic area on the boat for trolling. Now its a little soft/spongy and I'd rather not put my foot through it. Does anyone have any idea how I could reinforce this cover or replace it? Thanks
