I've just put a tarp on my 72 Katama for the winter and wonder if I should drill a couple of holes in the hull to see if any water comes out. I don't think there is too much water in there because when floating it looks pretty good(not too droopy in the rear) and with a johnson 88 top speed is over 35 mph on a GPS. I'm not too concerned about the cosmetics because it has bottom paint and it is over 35 years old so there are some dings and scrapes here and there. Would you probe it or just say it's in there and no big deal?
