I remember I had a boat years ago that I discovered had a pocket where water could gather out of sight, and there was plenty in there, that was...
Definitely check there isn't water in there
I can't quite figure why this vessel has been so stern heavy with just a 60hp Johnson. There is something heavy back there, and it isn't the...

You can't get plans for it anywhere ?
