We can't repair it 100%. If we let it go out unrepaired. If so, will it eventually come back to level 1 so we can restart it.

It is not necessarily essential to get it 100% repaired. The priority should be to get the Cabin down to below 10% to get the full Personal Supply Box. But. to answer your question, yes, if you leave it completely unrepaired it will revert to a lower level after a day or two. (We have actually done this successfully)

It's also important to have members who are active in your coop, since the amounts asked for are based on your total number of members, active or not.

Sorry @farmerjohn 22 (US1) but have to disagree with you (a co op with 5 member and a co op with 75 members takes the same amount of good to fill, hence why so hard for small co ops to fill even if active), amounts needed does NOT depend on number of members in co op for amounts required to fill. I have tested this by having members leave the co op for a day. What determines how much is required is the LEVEL of the boat, number of members has NOTHING at all to do with how much it takes to fill.
On the other hand, I find boat total waste of time unless you have ALL active members, it cost the few too much to get rewards for the other that do nothing. My ADVICE is if you are in a co op that very few help as I am and most are in on AU server, boat total waste of time and resources, if you are in a co op where EVERYBODY will help, then boat is ok.
If you leave boat and do 0 on it, every time it comes in you will get a LITTLE something for nothing, no matter how badly damaged it is. I have been in co ops where this is exactly what we did, just take the FREE little bits. I will contact a friend in another co op, to send me a screen shot so I can show this

I have to contradict that
it depends on the number of members in the alliance: but it doesn't matter whether they are active or inactive
better to dismiss inactive ones
of course, the higher the level the boat wants more
but with a boat level 1, 1 person manages to fill it, but if there are 20 members in the alliance, then it is impossible to do it alone

@Gut Landluft (DE1) i have tested this and so have others, I can't find the thread where we discussed this years ago, but a few of us tested this on different servers. A co op with 1 player is asked to put as much in as a co op with 20, 30, 40 or even 75 for the same level boat. We tested this on various servers, unless they changed this since we did extensive testing and number comparisons between co ops.
If you like we can do it again, if players post how much is required when boat comes in for number of player on level of boat, we can compare, if we all do the same level of boat it gives a good comparison, but other level will show it is level that effects amount NOT number of members
please help us get correct info, post data here

We just started the process of ignoring the boat so it will drop in level. Last level I was happy with was a level 3 and then they voted on it cuz they wanted more prizes not caring that it would ask for more. Then we had to remind people to help repair it and then some complained they were being told what to do and left. Wanted prizes but didn't want to help get them and cuz not enough were helping, weren't always getting the prizes when before we were. Then somehow it got upgraded to level 5. Still not sure if it git votes or a deputy accidentally hit the start. Doesn't matter. We can't keep up with it so down it gonna go!!!!

I did the test a long time ago on INT,
we were very few in the alliance, 5 members and 2 took care of the boat alone: it was easy,
then 5 were added and we were 10, now it wasn't at all easy and alone when the second one who helped, left it became impossible.
After saying goodbye to the inactive, I did it on my own.
but I don't play on INT anymore, I can't manage 2 farms.
and on DE1 the boat is on max and we have 69 members.
Filling has become more difficult since the factory quantities and times were changed.
Short things like nails are better, but the things that run longer now are far harder to fill.
We always had a time bonus in the production of the materials, even if only twice worked, you could do more a day:
the time-bonus got bigger the higher the factory was expanded,
the bonus has disappeared since the changeover.
and so long runners are more difficult to produce in quantities

so unfortunately I can't help, the boat is too high for comparison and 69 members make it 100% anyway
