1973 Outrage 19 Has 1,000-lbs Extra

TO GET ADVICE ON REPAIRS USE THE REPAIRS AND MODIFICATIONS FORUM.

THE INTRODUCTION FORUM IS NOT A BOATING FORUM

THIS TOPIC HAS BEEN MOVED TO REPAIRS AND MODIFICATIONS—jimh

I think there is water in the [interior of my 1973 OUTRAGE 19 Unibond] hull.

I have learned [that the weight of the 1973 OUTRAGE 19 hull is] possibly 1,000-lbs extra.

I drilled some holes [presumably somewhere in the boat] in the off season, but [the weight of] the hull didn't [decrease] much more than a couple hundred pounds.

Give me any suggestion on next moves.

I only use the boat four weeks of the summer.

[The 1973 OUTRAGE 19 boat has] been running and performing well for the last four years. In fact, I was surprised when I learned of the weight [being 1,000-lbs “extra”].
