Hi I'm fairly new to Boat Ownership and the forum.
I have an old Bayliner Run-About that I would like to save. I had ripped out the seats etc. to put in new fuel tank and other above floor repairs. This Winter it's been parked outdoors with a cover. The cover ripped and water got inside and now I have discovered water is under the floor (I can hear it if I rock the boat).
There are no access holes to remove and no drain into the bilge from the under-hull. I want to cut some access holes (to be permanent), get some air down there and hopefully save it from any rot (or further rot). The floor is solid now.
What do you recommend in the way of access and access covers?
Thanks
