It does, this side takes the cake! Again, the aft bulkhead... big deal as to how it looks. Having never leaked, I know she's structurally sound (will cover her anyway, but I've no concerns at this point, until I can access it by hand). The shot, upper right, is phenominal to me. Phenominal, in the sense that that bastard PO... ok, ok, I'll vent some other time. So, ok, you can see where the 'previous gentleman owner' made his cut through the sole to install a modifed fill/drain (which is 'THE BOMB', people, you should at least consider it). Note the splintered wood from his saw, as he obviously used a blade whose teeth were far to large, probably something for ripping 2x4's). So, rather than taking the preverbial 5 minutes to seal her all up the RIGHT way... he simply alpped some cheap wood down, likely garage scrap wood he found. Never treated it, never sealed her up right. Bare wood, layer of glass across the top. No screws holding it in place, no support, apparently, other than the top of sole layer (two?) of glass. Bare wood... in a ballast tank. Go figure. Note where the water has absorbed into and spread from this point. Idiot. A five minute thing that might well cost me hours of extra work. Can you BELIEVE this shot?!
