1997 Hurricane SD 176

[cthoms]

I am looking for any other owners of this boat to swap info with. Looks like '93 thru '97 may be the same boat.

Right now I'm questioning what the under-deck construction looks like, especially whether there is a bulkhead somewhere midships that would keep water in the bow from making it to the stern while underway. My bow sits lower in the water than the stern and I can't figure out why.

Thanks,
Chris

It's possible one of the drain holes from the bow anchor storage area may be blocked, keeping water in the forward bulkhead area. Another possibility is the foam could be saturated. You could have the boat weighed at a truck weigh station. Make sure to compensate for trailer and fuel weight, and see where you're at.... Good luck!
