I got 40 lbs out with out fan just laying on stbd side over winter Have not had a bird issue yet But ?

Was this resolved? If so, how? Did you wind up chipping in for some digging and gravel w the neighbor.... or did the town do right by you?

I'd like to know how much the wet boat weighed and how much it weighs after being dried out.

No way can you get that dried. Sorry, but month later; that thing still has water.

This is awesome, thanks so much for sharing. Did you end up repairing the other holes (like the one you showed where there was chafing)? I have a sunfish with a few spongy spots in the hull, wondering if it's necessary to patch those and if so, how to get started.

Thanks for the video. I'm trying to restore an old sunfish which has had holes and the foam inside the hull has absorbed water for years. What CFM do you have on your fans? I found this household fan with 185 CFM and am using it currently. www.honeywellstore.com/store/products/honeywell-turboforce-air-circulator-fan-ht-900.htm Is it worth investing in another fan directly for this application?

Merci . I can dry my laser's hull now.

Awesome!

Thanks for the video. I’ll be putting in 2-3 inspection ports in a ‘78 minifish I recently bought and I’m trying to avoid hitting foam. This helps see where the foam blocks might be. The seller told me the hull didn’t take on any water… after my first trip out there was so much water inside I couldn’t believe it still floated.

I wouldn’t waste my time with a MiniFish. I have 2. They are a L O N G way from a Sunfish, although look quite similar. Mr Sunfish, Cotuit. 50+ yrs experience with these boats.

Yours had foam inside? My dolphin should didn't! lol It's a solo skiff conversion now.

How did you close off the holes?

buy a hole saw

Decided to go with a bigger fan. Used a 4.5 hp blower detachable from a shop vac. Seems to be working well but just can’t leave it on 24/7 though.

hi - where did you find those plastic threaded caps?

Sweet video. I unknowingly bought a water logged sunfish clone. But now I have hope I can make her light again and have some fun with it

How'd it turn out?

Doesn't appear to be a Sunfish. I believe that that hull is a Sunfish clone.

you should of weighted it before and after

I've seen this. Hope it is resolved soon for you!!

Hi Nate, My husband John says there used to be drainage ditches in that area along Route 6A and into the Seaview and Vespers Pond subdivisions. CC Mosquito Control might know more. They used to control those ditches. He says there used to be maps of the drainage ditches. Not sure if that helps at all. Let us know what we can do to help.

That's awesome! I'm going to pick up a 14 ft sunfish tommorow that I'm going to convert it into a small skiff/ bass boat with an outboard motor. If it's waterlogged I'll definitely be using this idea to dry it out ! Great video!
