The stringers have closed cell foam inside. No worries there. You could have some water outside a stronger section but I doubt it would be much as the hull is pretty flat on the outside

Re: It's twisted.......
On principle, I would say that drilling a hole anywhere in a boat which is in the water is not a good idea. I think I'd wait until the next haulout. Or the one after that.

I have friends with other Hatteras , sport fishers or convertibles that developed a list , it’s coming from somewhere. Closed cell foam or not , water is getting in .

Has any one contacted the Army Corp of Engineers, maybe the water is twisted. The great lakes seem to be very flat at the moment.

Re: It's twisted.......
I have a spot on the wood to cover in the salon and an inclinometer would look nice. I'm surprised all my fancy electronics don't have one in there already.
Antique or digital? https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313&_nkw= ship+inclinometer&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_odkw=sh ip+inclinometer&_osacat=0
I like this one: https://www.stanleylondon.com/solid-...linometer.html
With a list to SB from the genny and 8 batts for the SB bank on that side, I'll slowly take it back to flat as things change. The tower makes it more noticable.Last edited by JuiceClark; 06-02-2021 at 11:09 AM.
