Im lost without the PW thread!!!!

Do a search for Pop Products (I think that was the name). I think they sell sturdy sacs with handles, either empty or loaded with steel shot. Obviously shipping would kill you on the filled bags, but I've read of several people who go by their local tire shops and pick up their removed balancing weights for free.

Ill take a peek

Which side is it heavy on?

On the starboard side, could be 25-50lbs worth, hardly noticable until i slam the boat for wakeboarding

I noticed when I was putting my tower up yesterday that I have some what looks to be rust on the weld. Should I be concerned? Would you leave it alone, put some paint on it, scrub it down then put paint on it, or something else? Anyone else had this? I don't want to be the next one to report that my tower snapped.

I think mine will be the next to snap if that makes you feel any better.

I've used that dumb cooler once. I think the same water bottles have been rolling around in there for 3 years.

I put bottles of water in there last year when I got it and they are still there. I also added the hot sauce to it. We use a softside that we got from Costco.

use a aluminium cleaner and wax or seal it

skip - I'll PM you my work email. I have several structural welding inspectors working under me. Send me the pics and I'll ask them their thoughts. Are those tubes aluminum?

[JreisRZR]

No. Mine just needs to be on a significant incline. I pull the plug when we trailer the boat, and it drains on the drive home because we have some decent hills.

Might explain why it wont drain, doh

These boats all have their own personalities ive decided

At least you have WA to help you build a new one.

I guess you could take a couple of those "free" Exiles and send me.

Just one on each, taps is over there though, cant weigh much though, small boat is more weight sensitive, it lists aton with only 1k on surf side, perfect for surfing!

WA is 350 miles away and Samson is closer. Maybe they'll return my calls if I park it in front of the their door. I'll send the "free" exiles but shipping will be around $1800.00 would you like my pay pal account and I'll get them on their way?
