Help! I bought a Use Hydrosport 17ft fishing boat. Every time I go out


Had an 18ft Wellcraft..... pulled the boat up to an island we were camping
on for the night, left the engine down too use as an extra anchor as the
tides kept shifting (it was an inboard ) next morning the boat was full
of water , seems the engine had stressed the transom and cracked it a little
, the transom was a little rotten anyway , had replaced the floor a year or
too earlier , this may be a similar situation.
