I agree with thataway. Bahia Honda and most of the Keys are a nice place to stay. We do get some wind down here during the winter, but you always have a choice of the Gulf or Atlantic side. Lots of great fishing in the flats during the winter.

Check out the pics in the Zoe B album. I get that most of the boats have a slight starboard list, however mine was caused by water accumulating in the starboard void just fwd of the gas tank. Water is coming in behind the rub rail most likely at the seam where they joined the cabin to the hull.

Thanks C-Dog. I will start my rub rails soon and will be taking pictures. In the meantime I am going to put access covers into both the port and starboard flotation chambers. I did notice the seam where they joined the top and bottom parts of the boat during construction when I was repairing...

Thanks everyone for being so helpful. Thanks Sea Wolf for putting the pictures directly into the forum, I need to figure that out. My rivets had corroded and the rub rail was bowed on the starboard side. I fixed it with stainless screws and used backing on the inside were possible. Will take...

I drilled a hole in the dead space just fwd of the starboard fuel tank where there is flotation--lots of water came out. The 5/8 in hole drained for quite awhile and the list was corrected. Water (rain) is coming in through some sort of gap under the rub rail, requires further investigation...

Zoe B--No List

Going to pull and check just so i stop stressing. It just does not make sense to me--thought i saw a place behind the rub rail where water penetration was a possibility, just not sure where it would go.

I will check the flotation on the starboard side fwd of the fuel tank. I did remove the fuel tanks to clean and re-run the fuel hose. In the process of removing the fuel tanks I filled the holes that were in the on the tank anchors. The only other work that i did was re-seating the rub rail...

Batteries are on the starboard side. Pictures of the list are in the Zoe B photo album. I never noticed it so much as i have for the the last few weeks. I am fine with a weight and balance issue due to loading, just want to rule out water seepage in the balsa core.

I have had the Zoe B since 2004 and kept her primarily on a trailer or high and dry. Last year I started keeping her at my dock in the water (she has a coat of bottom paint). Recently I noticed a slight list to starboard, but it seems to have increased. Currently I have about 15 gallons of...
