[Paddlewise] Broken Boat

 As the result of a highway incident yesterday, my number one boat, a Seda
Swift (kevlar) got severely crunched .  The deck adjacent to the rear hatch
got squeezed, compressed, with such force that deck is cracked/split away from
the hull on both sides next to where the deck and the hull join. The bow also
got crunched  so severely that it can be moved sideways slightly.  





The decision whether to repair or replace is hanging on the question of
whether or not it can be repaired.  And that question in turn hangs on whether
there is anyone or any business, preferably on the west coast, that does that
type of specialized repair work.





Would any paddlewisers have a recommendation or two about who might do that
kind of work, or where I might turn?  





Like.........  HELP !!





Ol' Dave
