Hot is Correct
Yes sir! We sure did notice the heat right off, might not be a wise choice in the south. Stored wine and beer feel the pain... but it dries things out nicely.
The water line stayed the same, it's close, kinda wished we raised it all around, perhaps 4+ inches. When the H20 tank is full we get the classic Ericson starboard list, putting it right on the line, the boot stripe gets some green after awhile that needs wiping off. We typically keep the holding tank empty on the port. The v-berth tank will bring the bow down if we choose to use.
