I think I got you beat Gregg..... the visible crack actually extends another 18 or so inches back.

Ya .. Going through the no wake in Prescott she was pumping for a good 10 to 20 sec. and your Brother said it had been like that all day !
Eric's ( Jimmy's son) boat was also leaking .. Wondering what's going on with that ?

Nope. The 23. I have a feeling this ________________is going to fight me the whole way.

That’s a nasty crack.

That is a bummer Tim on the 23.

The boat did not want you to get too relaxed in your retirement.

I was hoping to get into assisted living soon … Guess not ..
Thought about letting it sink and start over with this one … $300
Composite every thing, vinylester , BEEF UP transom to hold a new Yamaha ...

Look on the positive side of things, you could have had a leaky hull like this. It is a Progression boat - one of my favorites, variable dead rise that goes from 24 degrees to 23 to 22, full length stakes, good in rough water, speed in high 90s with a 300 and in the 70s with a stock 200.

Gregg, what is the game plan on your boat? Reinforce the hull from the inside?

Hyperacme · « **Reply #72 on:** August 22, 2018, 08:29:59 AM »

Not sure on game plan, I'll talk with Tim C., Shawn, Joe and Express Comp.
Get some options and take it from there …
Thinking it will have to dry out for a few, before starting repairs.

Not sure if this is how older CV's were done or if the shop that Ed had his CV repaired at did them, But look like a good idea or maybe stringers on the side of center one. What are they ? Bulkheads ? A few in the back can't hurt …

Crawled under to have a look .. Nice crack !
Pushed on it and water bubbled out up twice as far as big crack, must be well over a foot long …
Other side seems OK.

Last picture is water bubbling, farther up from large crack !

Hyperacme · « **Reply #74 on:** August 22, 2018, 05:37:53 PM »

Pluggin' at her … Slow but sure …
That crack has to be getting bigger every time I used it, I couldn't have missed something that big ?

dorelse · « **Reply #75 on:** August 22, 2018, 08:35:18 PM »

Well, as long as you don't have to do the transom & stringers again...shouldn't be too bad?

Hyperacme · « **Reply #76 on:** August 24, 2018, 07:35:55 PM »

Transoms good !
Not sure about stringer …

Hyperacme · « **Reply #77 on:** August 24, 2018, 09:35:02 PM »

Was just on Express's web site …
Can't find composite sheets for floor ?
