Skunk @ The Port

Time was short, as usual after work, so hit Barge Canal Access for a Quick pedal and see if anyone was home...

and test repair on my Turbo Fin.... 

use my usual winners in the area to a total strike out.... 

But Fix on the Turbo Fin is solid.... 

 Next Time for sure........

Bankers soaking were not doing any better....

Sorry no fish were to be had, but glad your fin fix held up!!

Thanks for the report and pics!!

Sincerely,

Jim

The repair looks good - have more of those materials on hand, I'd say...   

The repair looks great Don. At least you caught some nice tan if anything.

It least you got out and enjoyed the weather. Nice pic of the boat or ship, not sure of the correct term? Great job on your repair!!

Glad the repair is working great for you.  It'll benifit many of us Hobie owners here if we ever need to repair our drive.  Thanks for the report and pictures Don.

Thanks...  Looking at the Hobie Forum and some other sites, it looks like it's inevitable that the fins are going to breakdown sooner or later with enough use...

I don't know if ya saw my thread in " Kayak Rigging " where it shows a guy fixing his Turbo fin with the Metal mast ripping thru the entire length...

This fix worked!!!  Amazing

Getting that fin fixed is impressive...I'll have to remember that trick!  Better luck next time with the fish.
