Figured I'd post an update. We moved into the house in late August.

This is my current hobby as it seems to take up all my free time since we're acting as the general contractor. Broke ground at the end of September on our "forever" house, rough-in started this week..

Still hasn't hit 40 in Fargo yet and the streak is now 135 days in a row under 40. 3rd longest stretch on record. Nothing over 40 on the 10 day forecast either. Depressing........

Capt G, I feel your pain as I have a 2375 GCW ESP with a Yammy 150 and Sea Legs. I can get it over 30 with just me onboard and the bimini down. Very interested in what you find out on the repowering front. My wife and I are currently building our "forever" house and considering what's that's...

I’ve let it be for now as it’s never been enough water that it’s been an issue. Of course I say that and this summer it’ll start listing or riding lower.

Similar issues here near Detroit Lakes, MN

I have heard water sloshing in my toons off and on for years (bought used in 2016). Typically it doesn't sound like very much and by the time I get it to the dealer for end of season service, the sound is gone. However, last year, my center toon was sloshing when I brought it in so I pointed...
