Re: port side of hull is soft
Pix would help, but a Sunray 25' like this one:
The INTERIOR port hull or the EXTERIOR port hull? I know this isn't the port side, but above the water line, below?
Does your boat have that low window?
Details about it's exact location may help: Thru hull fittings can be seen just forward of that porthole oval window, looks like there is 3 fittings. There's also 1 near the transom, that's probably the bilge pump thru hull fitting...
