I think I finally got it!

glad to hear this finally worked out for you - I had read thru alot of your trials while I was thinking out my job - in fact it was probably your story, along with stuff over on classic mako.com, that lead me to install the knee in mine - which really stiffened it up.

Yes, I can beleive you noticed a difference in a now stiffer boat...

Wart,
It was going to be my next move....if this didn't do it I was going to rip the whole transom out and start that major rebuild.

miles,
I've got to get my number one fishing buddy healed up....my fiance. She spent the week in the hospital with what we thought was a bad appendix...she had a high fever of 103 degrees and severe cramps in her right side. I brought her home last night and she is feeling better. The weather looks good for one this Saturday, but it a bit too quick to take her out 100+nautical miles. We are still not 100% sure what is wrong with her....possible kidney infection.

Any way it sure feels good when the first thoughts you have about your boat are not...."blasted tranom!".

Captn C,
I've been following your dilemma on Classic Seacraft .com. My father is going through the same thing. I'd love to have the opportunity to talk to you or even have my father talk to you.

My dad bought a 2004 32' master angler from BPS in Hanover MD back in March or May ?, can’t remember now and it had only been run from the marina to his house and then out for a stroll one evening.

What a freaking mess.

Thanks,

Steve
