Hi folks. New member of your forum here. It has been a pleasure lurking for a while. I have gained some great insight from your posts. My wife and I are long time beachcat sailors. We started in the early 70's sailing Solcats, Prindels and Zcats. We got away from sailing while we raised a family for a few years. Now we have jumped back in catsailing with both feet. We recently aquired a 88' Nacra 5.7 (for my wife) and a 80' Nacra 5.2 (for me). The 5.7 is a cherry. The 5.2 has a problem I need your advise on.
The bottom of the port side hull, under the front cross tube, has a huge dent in it. I have thrown some photos on a web page if you would like to see the damage. Hull Damage Photos. The deck is flat, so it's not bent. just a huge dent. Any ideas about a fix. Can a replacement be found, or just sail with it. I await your expert advise.

Best regards,
Mike
