Pontoons Tested!

Well with the engines and the swim platform off I was able to remove both of the transoms and inspect the pontoons under them.  Had leaks in both areas.  Chad, my son in law came over and we pumped out the water that had gotten into the pontoons and pressure tested all of them.  Wasn't surprised to find the leaks at the transom area but also found a small leak on the front of the right one, a very small hole and it seems to be solid around it.  Phone our friend Wes, he is the welder that worked on them last time, he is going to stop by this week and scope it out.  He will do the welding sometime soon.  Larry our neighbor is working on a solution for the swim platform to make it lighter and I need to get him over to look at doing the third pontoon at the rear of the boat. 

Stay tuned!!
