fyi--bow heavy
Just so that you know---when I took my 02 190 bay for factory warranty repair this past spring, the first thing they did was drill 2 large holes in the bottum of the hull towards the front (bow) to drain water. This is routine from what I understand.
In addition--go with your instincts. If you think the bow is heavier--it very well could be. From what I understand, water can get trapped in the front third of the boat.
As far as the inner hull drain excitement???!!!!--Ya--I installed one too. The problem with this whole idea is what happens when you try and go to sell the boat. How do you explain to a prospective buyer that the manufacturer recommends installing a inner hull drain yada yada. Why would you buy a boat which has a leak in the inner hull?????
I have resolved to keep my rig "forever" trapped in the fact that I could hardly sell it for what it is worth--especially with having to sell the inner hole drain etc, in addition to the "factory trained expert warranty repair" which was done on the lifetime warranty hull---looks like botched plastic surgery. Once you get one like mine you are stuck.....
As far as the "great construction & strength" etc----my hull is cracking again. This means that I get to take the rig back for more "plastic surgery".
sorry for the soap box
