I picked up my first Whaler last Friday. I'm excited to finally be one of the "cool kids". :-)
Mine is an 1986 13' sport. On the left side of the transom the tie down is bent. I think that I'll just have to cut it off and then replace it, but before I did that I was wondering if there might be a way to save it? I'm not sure if it is chrome plated brass or some sort of soft metal that I may be able to straighten. Any thoughts? Check out the attachment. They must have hit something pretty hard to bend it.
