Had a weather event (almost a tornado) come thru the marine and flipped my Hobie 18SX on its port side. Only damage that I have found so far is the port wing, which was snapped off from both mounting brackets (very clean breaks). After looking for wing parts and finding none, now thinking of have sleeves installed and TIG welding the wings back together. Is this a feasible fix? Besides finding a good weld shop, what do I need to know and aluminum, tubing used to make the wings (type, diameter, thickness,...)
Thanks in advance, DC Shear HC18SX #2077
