Glad to know that was u. Your boat was in fantastic shape for the yr. I believe u said that there really had not been much renovation . The problem I have with the scuppers is normal as you will see when navigating this website.There are many posts as to set back for the motor mounting and design of the bracket,i.e., flotation.My problem with rear weight is many fold. Also I will eventually switch from downward drainage to thru the transom and out the rear. Are you living in Carteret Co. ? I have several co workers that have been watermen all there life. There connections to the boating community are invaluable and could be a great benefit to you.I see that you are using locals on Harkers Island , my friends are from the Atlantic/ Sea Level area.Send me a PM if you would like some more info.These guys are original to the area.Last names are tied to all regions of Carteret Co.,still watermen and boatbuilders.
