That fender shown was put on by my neighbor after the fact. I showed up and removed the 4 fenders that popped like a baloon and he put that on while I was at WM. I even have fender board but the wind was just too much to get it put on in that wind at the time. I did an extensive check both outside and inside on the ceiling where it was hitting and do not see any stress cracks at least for now.
To be honest I was thinking about selling the boat as I now have a 2 year old son and a daughter due March 8th but I don't think I can. I really love that boat and seeing it stand up to that I'm even more impressed. I have been in some pretty rough seas on lake Erie and always felt secure. Now I think Im going to put a little money into it and keep it for the kids. My wife even wants to keep the boat so that helps:)
