friend just got out of a nasty deal with blazer bay.

Boat had stress cracks brand new. Sent it back and they drilled holes in the cracks to stop em, called the boat "new" and sent it back to him as new hull, forgot to patch some of the holes.... boats with holes done float so well.

No Bueno- I would be royally pissed. The guys that own Blazer are pretty upstanding folks IMO- I met them when they hooked me up with a plant tour when I picked mine up a few years ago.

Historically, I've heard they are really good about honoring the warranty. But, on a new boat, I suspect they would try to repair first. Bad mistake, I think on their part- especially if they weren't 100% up front about the repair plan.

I've never heard of drill stopping a crack in fiberglass!!

Seen it done many times in Steel though.
