[QUOTE="Bantou, post: 519577, member: 36587"] I did a float test with a 3.5 hp motor while deciding if it was worth moving forward on. It has an extremely slow leak from the drain hole but is otherwise water tight. The drain hole is mushroomed on the inside and slightly out of round on the outside. The drain plug was in pretty rough shape though. I’m going to get a new plug and see what that does before taking further action on the hole. [ATTACH alt="IMG_8606.jpeg"]122633[/ATTACH] Edit: Given how this boat has been cared for, I suspect that it is currently undersized but I don't know for sure. Would a C-channel work better than the angle? I ran across some other posts on here that used c-channel for a similar repair while researching. [/QUOTE]
