You say zero damage to stringer, but that pic shows a rotten stringer. You at least need to look and explore a little further back and forward to see the extent of the rot.
I have lots of frozen cod in the deep freeze, but as someone said above, once its frozen it just ain't as good! Having fried rabbit and gravy here tonight, sipping on a cold one while I cook. Ain't complaining!
I imagine this conversation will get shut down real quick, but anyway.....dinosaurs were wiped out by a comet about 65 million yrs ago. Yes the climate has warmed and cooled before, but its the fast rate of change that makes this time different.
Well I would think that is def. not the way she should sit! I would move some weight around, but would be most worried about water logged foam and rot in the back of that boat, as suggested by jimmbo.
