It might make sense to add a garboard plug (and keep it open)

Hickson via CnC-List Cc: Neil Gallagher Subject: Re: Stus-List Downsides to having a boat on the hard? When I bought my 35-1 it had been sitting in a yard for 3 years, and pretty much neglected by the owner. The biggest issue was water inside the boat, presumably after the battery died the bilge pump stopped draining whatever came in, and the boat had an inside waterline a foot above the cabin sole. Fortunately it was about an inch below the crankshaft opening of the A4 engine, otherwise it would have filled the sump and seized the engine. So my sense is that either be sure you have no water entry, or have some way of draining it. Neil Gallagher Weatherly, 35-1 Glen Cove, NY On 7/13/2019 8:19 PM, Barbara L.
