    Thanks all. I have been in conversation with Rusty and the local marina in trying to get this resolved.

    Structural hull damage 2005 SD

    It is a floating Poly Lift with polyethylene bunks. I would hope that is not the problem as they are one of the best hoists on the market and it is the primary means of keeping the boats out of the water at our lake...

    Structural hull damage 2005 SD

    Apparently there is cracking on both the port and starboard side, but the starboard side is the only crack that goes all the way through the hull.

    Structural hull damage 2005 SD

    I agree, it seems like it is some kind of freeze damage, especially since this was such a harsh winter. There still has to have been a breach point to start with and that is what is confusing. Like I said, I don't run this boat hard. There has not been any wake that I have hit hard that would...

    Structural hull damage 2005 SD

    I've never noticed any leaking at all or any indication of that. I am always suspicious of things that happen to the boat while I'm away. It is also suspicious that the dock had ice damage this winter which also damaged my lift. They just let me know of that damage and that their insurance...

    Structural hull damage 2005 SD

    Not sure how they got it out. Are you implying that they may have caused the damage?

    Structural hull damage 2005 SD

    So I just had my boat pulled out for drive service, oil change, impellar change and dewinterization and the service techs found major structural damage in the stern of the hull. When the tech pulled the outdrive, he noticed water continually leaking out which raised a read flag. After more...

    Sundeck in Ocean

    I kept hearing in these threads the SD was not self bailing, but I remember buying my 2005 240 SD and they told me it was. Why did they change this?

    Questions for those who slip their boat....

    The dock contains slips. Dock = collection of slips. Slip = parking spot for your boat.

    Questions for those who slip their boat....

    1. Is you slip a single-boat slip or do you share the slip with one or more boats? Big dock, 25+ boat, single slip with a finger on each side. 2. Do you put your boat bow-in or stern-in? Bow in. I wish stern. 3. Re the question above, why? Not sure, always have done it that way. 4. Is your...

    BTW, how do you like Boca Raton? My wife and I always dream about living on the FL coast and living on a canal.

    260 Sundeck in SE Florida Intracoastal & Ocean

    I've boated with my 240 SD at Lake of the Ozarks in central Missouri for the past 10 years and have never felt threatened with cruiser wake. The Ozarks is notorious for large crusisers up to 60', relatively narrow channels and heavy traffic in small spaces. As always, at the helm in control...

    LOTO Boaters

    I know someone who just sold a 290. I wonder if you bought it from them. What part of the lake will you be boating on? Sent from my HTC Glacier using Tapatalk 2

    Hulu Plus and iPad??? Any experience?

    At home I have Directv and I was looking at getting rid of that all together and going completely to streaming. I learned that I would miss out on local news, certain cable news programming and a lot of sports. So I cancelled all my movie channels and subscribed to Netflix and Hulu Plus and...

    Water pump for dock recommendations

    Nothing attached to the boat, just something I can attach to the inside of the dock well and plug in to a 110v outlet.
