Thoughts on spending the money to do it? Is it worth it? I would not be able to do it myself.
Idk, maybe rides better, probably doesnt float better. With a full tank my scuppers are under water and waves from the stern are not good... so much so ive thought about putting in an on deck bilge as well.
I've got a 2003 2520 XLSC with 300 Yamaha on a bracket. I found that in a head sea I need to trim the bow down a fair bit more than when in a small chop. That has improved the ride significantly. I've got the modified V hull so she tends to pound if I don't get that bow down. I don't trim all the way in but not too far from it.
Damn that came out great, any idea what he paid?
Mine has an open ransom but has a nice fiberglass shield to keep the water out. Also my scuppers have the little enclosed ping pong balls that don’t let water back in the scupper when where lower in the water. My deck stays dry. I’m on the west coast.
Not sure a 2016 is quite same as the older models with an open notch. The notch is closed off with the built in bait tank.
It would give me more storage/room for a live well that i would like to add.
That fiberglass stopper is much nicer than mine, i have a door that flips up and down but really does not block that much water. Its also frustrating because you have to put it down to be able to tilt the motor up. Did your boat come with that? Or was that an aftermarket
Wow i havent seen that before. I dont hate that although it looks like it takes up alot of deck space. It came built with that seat insert/bracket?
Just picked this baby up yesterday
