If it damaged the pulpit there is definitely the possibility of hull damage. Consider also - would the impact have tightened the lifelines, damaging the stanchions going aft? A good surveyor would be a good idea.

As for the paint - they are obligated to make the boat look like it did before the accident - so however much paint that requires is what they should be paying for.

good luck!

Long story but two nights ago a boat in Dering Harbor broke loose and smashed 
into my pulpit. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement ?  Does South 
Shore (is that the correct name) have them?

I am sure that others have been through this before. Is there any chance of 
structural hull damage from such an accident? None is visible from the outside

The collision also caused some deep ish scratches through the already old awl 
grip. Any thoughts in what I could reasonably ask the insurance co (his or 
Shelter Island Yacht Club) to pay for (a new awl grip job would be wonderful 
but I think unlikely!)
