Thanks for all the replies, unfortunately, being in Baja, I didnt have access to most of that...and an early AM departure to return to the US for work resulted in me leaving it in a friends 2 car garage...in Baja. I wont get back there for 3 or 4 weeks.
1) The motor was tilted up..tried to start motor after re-floating off the beach the next morning...batteries weak..no joy...as I was being towed back to the estuary to put the boat on the trailer, I tried several times and got a start twice..on high idle...but nothing continuous. Ill pull the plugs and do the MM routine and drain carbs when I get it back
2) No running water for flushing anything before we left. I did open the bow hatch and the console flaps so it could air out
3) One saddle tank was near empty, the other near full...I plan on draining both upon return
4) There is NO access to back side of the sponson...I did use auto grade POLYESTER resin , not epoxy for initial repair was that wrong?
5) Nothing is happening until Oct 30-31 or Nov 7
6) Any concerns about the understructure (stringers. foam. transom) being flooded over night??
