wondered if anyone has had any spontaneous listing in their Ericson?
And looking for specific information about the construction of my hull and keel... I can't find water but am starting to believe that somehow water has gotten into the hull. Is it hollow.
Here are some more clues:
no evidence of water (there was some in the bilge, but I spent the weekend aboard and did not hear the bilge pump run at all, which to me means that no water is 'accumulating', but that the water got in from a recent rain) More to come on that nothing of significant weight has been removed, nothing of significant weight has been added as cargo. Can't explain the sudden weight distribution, but seriously concerned.
she's listing a couple of degrees, noticeable to the eye, but not uncomfortable to be aboard.
I inspected the hull yesterday with a diver, we did not see any evidence of a leak or significant damage. She def needs a paint job on my next haul out, but again, nothing alarming was noted and my diver said he sees plenty of worse paint jobs
