Took the skiff to the ramp yesterday when nobody was around. I was able to unload it, get in the water with my pencil and mark the water line where she floats empty. At the transom, the waterline is just a little (3/4"+/-) over the top of the drain tube. I now do not think I have much water in the hull. As a matter of fact it appears the stern may be sitting a bit higher than the bow.
I want to thank all that have responded to my questions so far. I'm sure I'll have more as this project continues. Pressure cleaning today, then starting on deck templates.
If I ever figure out how to download pictures from my phone to my laptop I'll try yo post.
