Have you done a hammer test of your hull? Tap the entire bottom below the waterline to determine if you have any separation. Tap any suspect area(s) with a hard plastic tap hammer.
An estimated 1780 lbs for your hull is very good. I estimated that #001 was over 1 ton, with lots of water in the hull. She dripped for days; the best you can do is seal all water intrusion spots in the deck and hull.
We put a through hull brass tube in the anchor locker of #001, to solve the problem of standing water.
