Blocking flooding hull on SR5.4 , edition 274....:)

Will share a few pics' how i did it. Yesterday tested the boat and it does not feel unstable at rest, thus so far happy with the mod. Used quick release plugs both in bow and stern for easy ventilation case needed. Also "sharpened" the corners in the transom to obtain little additional speed.

After holiday season will turn the boat upside down, stripping the hull from antifoul and go through the spray rails. Will paint the hull and transom also.
