There has been a recent slew of posts concerning inner hull water. I sure hope I never have to worry about it. But it would not surprise me whatsoever if I did.
When shopping for a boat, I had my eye on three: A used Grady White Tounament, a Boston Whaler 18 Ventura and the 195dc. I narrowed my search down to the Whaler or the 195DC because I wanted something "unsinkable". While doing my research on these boats, I went to this web sight and also surfed the Whaler web sight "continuous wave".
Because I chose to purchase a boat with an inner hull, there willl always be a possibilty that water will get in there. Any thru hull improperly sealed without "Rule" or (the stuff that Whaler recommends) or damaged in some way is a potential entry point.
When I went on the Whaler forum, many of the inner hull water issues were answered with "There has been thousands of posts about this, please search the sight by beginning at the FAQ section". I did, and here is how you get there:

After reviewing both sights, I figured I had a better than even chance at keeping my foam dry with a plastic boat that I can beat with a hammer. I hope I am right.
If I ever do get this water, I have the good folks here to give me a hand to try and figure out where it could be coming from and how to resolve it. I am paying attention, not losing sleep, having a ball with this boat, but being realistically vigilant.
