Thanks!..
About the possible water in the hull, I am going to try something in the next few weeks.
I am going to pull out the bench/storage box that runs down the side of the floor, it is attached with 8 screws and very solid. After I remove the bench, i am going to drill a couple 1.5 inch holes in the floor and check for water and pump it out with a shop vac. I will then fill the holes with fiberglass and sand smooth and put the bench back.
I dont know if there is water in there or not though..
