No, not that kind of banging.
Re: Admiral woke me up....
I was on a 53' wide body and heard the same noise. We called a diver to inspect the trim tabs... huge stainless buggers, and one of the hinge brackets was broken. As the boat heaved in the swells and current, the loose trim tab bracket banged on the hull. Cheap fix in the water.. $300 or so.

What is a 53 Wide Body? They're all 15'10". And they all have molded in trim tabs that are fiberglass.

Sky, the 53 extended deckhouse I brought back from Florida definitely did not have fiberglass trim tabs. They were big stainless steel tabs. We hired a diver in Destin at Baytown Marina to repair it.

Oscar, I am starting to wonder about the titles of your posts. One is "I am so screwed" this one is "The Admiral woke me up at 4 AM". They leave everyone wondering about what you and the admiral are up to. Do we have to have Jim, as moderator, talk to you about cleaning up your titles? I mean really there are Conservative, Christian readers on here. I myself don't mind but some of them might. LOL

Jim has had a conversation with me. I will refrain from putting a heading on it.
Re: Admiral woke me up....
Oscar the Grouch has been advised he will be stuffed back in the trash can if he doesn't clean it up.
Re: Admiral woke me up....
I dont blame Oscar, he just baits us. The rest is just our weird mind set. I just hope he refrains from putting Woody Wax on his anchor chain, it will never hit the bottom!
