Great pics and even better tutorial! I see the reason now as you say once in the water it’s different. Yes it’s noticeable in that first pic.
Awesome read and well deserving of a thread! I’m thinking your method should work!

Thanks, probably not many out there with this trouble. Newer boats have the opposite issue where the walk-thru sometimes has to be shimmed up to create a gap.
Here’s the doors mocked up and pulled in.

Sure as the newer style deck weight will draw in the side with the bottom sagging.
Well it looks perfect now and will probably be less shifting movement now the the lower is blocked up.
I loce learning stuff! Thanks Mac for the share!

Our pool replastering that was supposed to be done a month ago finally got completed last week. Of course the pump was out when I went to fill it so we have a new one of those as well. Now the heater is not functioning so that is what I’m dealing with this morning. Can’t wait to get up to the lake for 10 days starting tomorrow and not be dealing with the pool. It looks great but it is not worth the hassle especially when we are at the lake 2 hours north every weekend.

Lol they both were at first.. wasn’t 5 minutes in and they both had their little thumbs up to go faster. On a side note, these booster balls work great in case anyone was on the fence.

For just the reason of avoiding a submarine take off there worth every penny and storage.
Most kids and adults usually loose the fun factor once pulled under.

This weekend I'm at the Mohegan Sun in Connecticut for the Barrett-Jackson auction and they have this new 28' Chris Craft on display. It's a gorgeous boat! The freeboard is higher than last years model, and it has a few extras added from the last one I saw.

I loce Chris Craft and the hideaway Bimini they do . That fixed top is great , and being a tall 28 foot with a single I can see the bow thruster option as being nice
