Boat trailer inner fender bolts

[brody66]

I chipped some gel coat on the bottom corner of the boat and have a guy to fix it today and sure enough it is right behind the fender well. It can be taken care of if you take out the wood panel behind the fender but the studs are turning in the wood, any one know of any tricks to get them off with out destroying the wooden panel.

I had the same problem the first time I took out our boat. When I got home I destroyed the wood, on purpose, and replaced them w/ 3/8" ABS plastic w/ carpet attached. They'll never rot again.

What is you guy using to fix the gelcoat, and what did he charge?

Some kind of gel coat repair, he owns a body shop right next to my car dealership, i dont know what he wants but i figure he will treat me right, we trade often, i am about two hours south of stillwater, how was the fourth.

Is it a Boatmate trailer?
