    Trailer Bunk Position

    Well, I'll be the odd man out. I have had 3 boats with that exact hull. My guess is you end up with one of those strakes sitting on top of a bunk must times you load it. My bunks are 5" inside the strakes. And the inside edge of the bunk is 11" from the centerline keel. It seems to be the...

    Getting busy at work.

    Anyone else getting busy at work? A month ago we were told of two major corporate mistakes, which resulted in over 10 million units in surplus inventory. Our products have a sell by date, so the company pulled 3 full weeks out of production over the next 3 months, to reduce inventory...

    Drain Plug? How is this supposed to work?

    Its quite possible that the boat did not come with a drain. Or it went bad. Looks like someone attached a garboard plug, then lost the plug and used something that would fit ???

    Remote winch hook release ???
