Just adding to the mix here, last year on my 18' BW in Clearwater suggested I drill 1/4" holes every 10" along the transom and let it drain over the winter. I did that and although it pretty much dripped up to the day I plugged the holes once she went back in the water she still sits low.

It looks like the only way to fix a wet boat is to go through the work Kamie is doing or live with it. I feel better by at least giving it a try. I need to do some work on my tank cover and at that time I'll have access to the tank coffin and may decide to see what the foam in there is like. But at the moment it's far more work than my schedule can handle. The good news is that with the repairs I've done since buying the boat the condition seems to have stabilized and not geting any wetter.

More power to you Kamie...
