To the Op...Id take this issue to the prop forum, Hopefully Dhadley will respond. If he does take heed his experience is vast and pretty much spot on.

hopefully thats whats going on smoke.
a lil more time at the helm, i am bettin all will be ok.

cyclops,
school me a little,
if his foam is soaked and it freezes will it lift up his deck?crack rotten stringers?
at least the frozen water wont deteriorate wood as fast. lol.

paul,
no worries bud.
if warm enough poke around on your deck and see if you can find soft spots on the deck.

time and patience will see you thru
any question, any topic, lots of people will help you here
we all learn a lil everyday
take some time this offseason to play around with your boat controls
take some more pics and post them with any questions

how long before we can get em back in the water fellas

almost forgot,
a long time ago an old outboard mechanic told me to ad just a lil power steering fluid when i had a leaking trim ram
it seemed to work for a season or so but i eventually replaced the unit
any thoughts?

Re: tri-hull bounce

I'd take an hour or so and replace the seal(s).... ATF and water are a BAD mix.... if they get together you get a thick nasty goop.
