I was out of town for a few weeks and had not got down to the dock to check things out. I noticed that the Right toon was sitting in the water pretty low. So I say, no problem, I'll take it to the lanch ramp, put her on the trailer and pull the plug to drain.
Not so easy. As I was pulling it out of the lake, she was tilting big time. But hey, I figured that so I pulled up a few feet. Then it slid on the trailer a bit to the heavey side, to the point the toon tip was touching! I'm think the trailer failed. So I'm thinking just pull the plug, drain out the watter. NOTHING came out. Some nice fellow boater was at the ramp and said, he would help counter balance the weight so we could get it back in the watter to maybe better center the boat on the trailer. It did help with the tilt factor, it did not slide. But again, I pulled the plug and no H20 came out.
So I give up and just take it back to my slip, all listing and all, wondering what the heck is going on.
When I pulled the plug the first time, it hissed releasing some pressure. So I assume it's "open"
All I can guess at this point is that there are chambers and some crud has clogged an opening from chamber 1 and 2.
Any ideas?
