I hope you get this as the post I’ve just read is a fairly old one.
last year my 7.8 Young Craft mysteriously sank in the marina, to say I was devistated is an understatement, I had just fitted a new 250 v8 Merc with complete wiring and instrument upgrade, 14 hours old. Luckily I was able to claim insurance but it has remained a mystery as to why it went down. Since the event I have put the boat into a sea pen, thinking that this will be right now, but I am still getting water into the bilge, I have always put this down to perhaps leaking decks, but after reading your story I’m wondering there’s something more sinister going on. Could you please let me know we’re in the hull the crack was found. I have just slipped the boat to replace the deck and after removing the old deck material have discovered that no way was the water getting in via the deck. Hopefully you firstly get this note and secondly can help me with my investigations.
