the previous owners removed the rope clutches and filled the holes--problem was that the patched holes leaked. One leaked right into the sink(was that planned!)I redrilled them and filled them with marinetex. but the real question is "why is my boat so heavy" maybe I will reweigh this fall and next spring.

My boat was lifted by a crane onto a cradle today. The crane's load cell measured the weight at 7,300 pounds. The accuracy was probably plus/minus a hundred or two pounds so perhaps the boat is actually a touch lighter. Note that she was lifted without a mast/sails/cushions/sheets/eletronics/and all other gear removed. This is a bit surprising because I thought it would have weighed less fully striped out. I've always expected my boat to be on the light side. I don't have floatation marks, but maybe I'll add them for interests sake next season. My big concern with weight was for trailering and it sure looks like a 6,000 and even a 7,000 pound capacity trailer is out of the question.
