just be careful if you have a roller trailer and you decided to take that route...
the marina i bought the lemon boat at told me two of the three drain plug holes were live well drains!!!! meanwhile im on my third or fourth trip and wondering why im only getting 6-8 kts at WOT!!! still po'd about that one but the point of that is, with all the water that was in the bottom of the boat the extra weight caused "roller grooves" where she sat on the trailer....

even if it was only 250 extra gallons thats an extra 2100lbs sloshing around on a 18ft boat.

all that said, you will probably be fine... just wanted to throw that caution out there.

dukes right, you NEED to solve this if your boat will be in a slip 24/7.... that friggin guy murphy will sink his teeth in and your bat's will fail at some point, your new boat excitement will turn into a nightmare real quick.
