[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 428649, member: 13599"] Lockndam25 and 2smknbrls - I share your views equally....... it is hard to imagine that any amount of water would come from under the loose fitting transom cap. and When the OP said the indentation was caused by a clamp, that, to me, is a red flag that the transom wood could be soft or too thin for the cap ......... and possibly any fasteners going through the hull through the transom panel could be the leakers. I would tilt the front of the trailer a foot up above the level line and fill a whole bunch of water in the stern and see what happens. (put blocks under the stern so it won't tip back). all kinds of variables exist. troubleshoot one issue at a time to narrow it down. [/QUOTE]
