Wives tend to have tunnel vision. (Don't get me wrong, I love mine dearly) but usually they only see the start and the finish of a project... everything in between is "sell it, are we there yet, why did you do that" sorta stuff. Make up your own mind. Then give them a hammer and saw and involve them. They can surprise you with the work they can do. And once they are involved the complaints usually stop and the "what should I do next?" starts.
Truthfully, with the amount of labor you have in that boat already.... if it were me I'd just bite the bullet and fix what was wrong. In the end it will be "lets take it for a ride again next weekend honey".. it will be worth it.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God) 
Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
