The thump I understand.
It was the after-thump shimmer and flexing that concerned me.



I think it has done the "thump" thing a few too many times and is
starting to loosen up internally. Not a good thing obviously, and not
a recommendation for older SeaRays that have been run hard. SeaRay and
a lot of other manufacturers use glass over foam composite
construction. Once the bonds between glass and foam start to break
down, the boat loses structural integrity very quickly.


Ahhh... that makes sense and certainly fits the sensation I observed.
The skin has become detached from the muscle.
