    Just picked up a 2000 model Triton 18' Bay Flight. Was crooked when I purchased it.

I know it shouldn't be here, and will take care to not let this happen again but is it likely that any damage has occurred? All other rollers...

    Water trapped under floor?

    I recently picked up a 1981 19ft stingray boat. 120HP Mercruiser I/O. Transom is solid, all original interior. No flex when on the water, no damage, just "normal wear and tear". I have experience repairing boats and have a pretty good understanding of boats in general. I have been unable to...
