Hi, I picked up the nickname "Buzz" back in the Air Force around 1981. I had a 19' bowrider I/O back then (bought new in 1976,) but sold in 1984 when I went to Korea. You know, the old "hole in the water you pour money into" cliche? So, I haven't owned a boat since then. Now I'm retired and back on the Gulf (PCB) and my son talks me into splitting the cost of an OLD "Ganew?"--A canoe with a transom/motor so we can go fishing in St Andrews Bay. Well, with maybe 6 inches of freeboard, it can't handle much chop! My wife and I enjoyed the boat ride, but after our second outing I decided to start seriously looking for a real boat. Of course the wife has requirements for at least 7 pax. So, with fishing primarily in mind, we end up with this 2001 Logic 210CC. The seller advertised it as a 2001 Triumph (half truth?) and when I requested pictures, he sent me to the TriumphBoats website. I read, watched the videos, found this website, and basically was sold on "the brand." Now, how about the boat? Went out for a test drive and it was mine. It needed a severe cleaning! When we pressure washed the storage boxes, I noticed the water runs out the bottom of the hull. QUESTIONS: *1--Do these boats take on water if there aren't drain plugs in the storage boxes? We plugged them all and had a nice "First Cruise" yesterday, but I'm curious what happens on the water. Will the stuff in the storage boxes stay dry if they aren't plugged? *2--The livewell pump doesn't fill up the well. I looked at the 2006 owners manual on this site, and it says I need to open the sea cock? OK, is this true on the 2001 Logic? There'll be more questions without a doubt, but I'm on the short fused "48 hr trail." I'll end with one more question...Is the $30 DVD worth the price with my owning a 2001 Logic?
Thanks in advance.
