That’ll buff right out.
Yea right. Some shipyard time for sure.
Unsightly, but it still seaworthy. I wonder if they'll continue the cruise and tape off that part of the ship, or transfer the passengers for cosmetic reasons.
“That’ll buff right out.”
My company will send out 4 welders who will fix that in a jiffy. The cruise line supplies the steel, weld wire and the paint. Oh, and you’ll have to feed them and... errr... pick up their rather large bar tab.
Lotsa Bondo.
