V-21 owners - other tips...............
1. Port side transom access- where your oil tank is located.
Under this section is a sealed off void.......
Don't drill a drain hole into the " floor" of this section that the oil tank sits on.......or water will accumulate permanently.....
I have a drain hole, but I keep it plugged, and only check annually to be sure no water is down there. ( narrow vacuum hose to wet vac)
2. Deck plate over fuel tank sensor....
I remove it off season to air, but keep it sealed down with clear silicon during fishing season.
These plastic deck plates can and will leak without sealing.
I believe lucky........seems bone dry in there.......the wood I can see it light colored and looks new.
