I manage a boat rental facility on a small and shallow lake. The Sunfish we rent are constantly run aground and hit submerged obstacles. This has caused damaged to multiple daggerboard trunks and daggerboards alike. Currently I use Marine Tex to repair the damage, however this lasts only until the next stump or sandbar is hit. I've read on the forums about using tabs for the trunk area, velcro or even carpeting. Would tabs provide enough cushion to actually make a difference in stopping the daggerboards from cracking the trunk/repairs I've made? I'm looking for a way to prevent this as I've already had to repair a few boats this year, multiple times each. Thanks!
