Good gelcoat repair in Raleigh/Apex, NC area; CD25

Post by yankeefan »

Can anyone recommend a good gelcoat and fiberglass repair shop near the Raleigh/Apex area? I would also be open to trailering the boat to the NC coast to have the work done if I can get a good recommendation.

The key is not to spend a ton of money as I'm still looking forward to sailing the boat and not getting her ready for the museum quite yet. There are a couple of trouble areas and a soft spot near the companionway that I need to get someone who knows what they're doing to address; I can do a decent repair but have neither the time nor the facilities right now to start this project on my own.
Most of this is common repairs that I'm sure everyone who has had their Cape Dory for more than 5 years has had to address, so anyone in Eastern NC that can provide a lead or recommendation, it would be much appreciated.

Like a duck out of water, but this is maintenance year so far.
