Thanks for responding, there is a drain hole but appears to be blocked. I’ve used air,high pressure water and a steel fish can’t seem to get it to drain. Last resort maybe cutting an access hole in the back wall to find the blockage, dealer says it supposed to drain into the bilge. Short of sending it back to the manufacturer, I just don’t know what to do.

so you liked my transom !
Was a way of increasing cockpit fishing space !overcoming the transom horrible mess it was in !Making the hull safer from following seas , and the added performance and handling was definitely a big plus !
Easy to do and make the new transom shape and had given it lots of thought how to use some of the old and plant on to the new and being 100% composite no wet rotten transom ever again .I also fitter hydraulic steering and even at 60mph plus was one finger control it was so light to steer ,Once I got the prop exchanged at the local Yamaha dealers for smaller diameter and bigger pitch and the motor height set right was a real pleasure to drive Better than a car !

Hey Dacman. I know this is a long shot but do you, by chance, have a video of your Spirit running?

From one who owns a '76 75 hp Stinger, why do you say it is the most bullet proof?
