And I thought it would be less work to buy a new boat.

When I started to tighten the the club tramp, the forward part of the tramp track on the starboard hull started to pull away from the hull. I checked and the 4 forward screws were just in plastic. After talking with the dealer I pulled the starboard seat pad and inspection port an found the aluminium backing plate was drilled but it was bent and the 4 forward screws didn't touch it and the forward most screw was missing. It took about 4 hours to reinstall the 5 scres and to check and seal all the rest.

This is a novice boat. Most owners would not have known what was going on. However, they probably would have learned that sailing back with a partial tramp sucks.
