I recently purchased this boat and I believe that the boat started life as a regular pontoon and was converted at some point to a tritoon. When first purchased noticed the boat leaning when we put it in the water. After taking it back out we removed and drain plug and found the pontoon to be filled with water. I had it pressure checked and could not find anything. After taking the thing out several more times have found water to be in the pontoon but only a gallon or so after being in the water for a day. I would like to swap out the pontoon and maybe even all three to round pontoons with lifting strakes. Can somebody tell me if this is an option or should I go down a different path

pressure to 3psi and find the leak. spend $35 to have the leak welded up and go boating

most of the leaks are at the top by the M-brackets
