Top guys:

- Ronny Haylock in Havelock does great work, exceptional body work/spray painting if required, did our Critch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrVuh7n ... e=youtu.be
- John Spaeth in Brechin does great work, but prefers $50K new builds(eg" J-Craft, VKing) to mucking around with old stuff busting his balls to get nickle & dimed to death
- Rob Scythes in Udora, great work from lake boats to full on carbon fiber F1 race boats.
- There's a guy in Port Severn (Barron's?)

They all have proper wood shop, spray booth; know your budget, above guys don't dick around....or pick up a truck bed full of Mexican migrant workers from Holland Marsh for a weekend for cash, tacos & cerveza.

Will PM.

Found these guys, never tried them, worth a call/drive to check out,...after all, it's just a voodoo ;): http://www.kijiji.ca/v-powerboat-motorb ... nFlag=true

Ronny's exceptional work was 85% cosmetic(sand, fill & paint), with 15% structural reinforcement of transom to girders & floor, both solid. Took a month from drop off to done.

Murph has gone full time on his own as well. Got him to give my boat the once over, extremely happy with the results.

you can buy a brand new critchfield hull from Top Gun marine for $3500.. keep that in mind when pricing a transom job at any of those repair shops..
