It is supposed to rain, wish it would, so I cranked the boat as high as I could in front so the rain would run out the drain plug and give it a good bath in the process. There's a silver dollar size hole in the fiberglass in the fore side of the bilge well in front of the motor. Water was leaking out of it, so I ran a screw driver in the hole, and some bits of wood floated out. That was the first thing this morning. Just checked and it's still dripping, a small steady stream just above a drip, drip, drip. Looks like I got water logged styrofoam. I must have been hauling around a lot of water weight. Do those things ever dry out? Looks like I'll have to tear the deck off to get at it. Anyone have experience with this?
Pull up a chair and start readin'! Sorry about your boat
