Is this something that I should worry about? . . . . .

[PReaux]

I need some advice . . . .

I have suspected for some time now that the missus has been cheating. The usual signs; Phone rings, if I answer the caller hangs up; going out with the girls a lot. I try to stay awake to look out for her when she comes home but I usually fall asleep.

Anyway last night, about midnight, I hid in the shed behind the boat. When she came home she got out of someone's car buttoning her blouse, then she took her panties out of her purse and slipped them on... It was at that moment, crouched behind the boat, I noticed a "hairline crack" in the outboard mounting bracket... Is that something I can weld myself or do I need to replace it?

Just askin', mind you!
