A starter away....

Js 550 was almost sea worthy with a likely bad starter and a new one ordered when the kid in our shop drove a forklift into the nose. Sad. RIP general lee

Didnt even take pictures of the bottom of the nose. He backed into the ski on the roll cart right into a palletrack and must have just crush the ever living hell out of it. Has stess fractures all over the nose. Shes toast. Time do it ALL THE F@!* OVER AGAIN.
 
That can easily be fixed............ I have ripped entire nose off of my old SJ before
Anything can be fixed i suppose but at this point it a decision between an 90/91-95 hull (which is ideally the hull i want with a reed motor) and the time it would take to fix this one. It would probably take about half the time to fix this one as the learning is over and the doing is known but alot of decisions to make i suppose.

As tim mcgraw once said. "Free advise is worth the price you pay."
Especially if you don’t know anything. Most people aren’t very good at gathering information and making desicions. Years ago I noticed that automotive repair customers would rather ask the salesman technical questions even when the actual mechanic was standing right next to him. It’s funny how brains work.
