Be warned, you are takiing advice from a guy who traded his boat for a bunch of rocks.          Love ya Bob

Traded the boat for rocks, eh?  Sounds like a traitor in our midst.  On the other hand, I heard rocks don't use much premium, maybe he's smarter than he seems......

Thought I'd swing by and introduce myself.  Been lurking for a couple of months now, looks like a great community with a bunch of good people.  Picked up a 78 Nordic with a BBF and a Dominator pump a couple weeks ago (pics when I get time).  I'm up in MT, so its a short season for me.  Ready for my first newb question???  The bow of the boat has 8-10 pvc bladders stuffed up in it, they are 2' in diameter, and about 1' across (about the same size as a mylar party balloon).  Would this actually keep the point of the bow a little above water if my dumb ass managed to sink it?  Or should I just pull them out so I have more storage room?  Thanks, looking forward to participating here!
